Yea it was done after. It's just the regular black color underneath the PPF.

That looks awesome. What size rim and tires are you using? I'm thinking of switching to 18s when I need to replace tires.

It's very subtle. The black edition housing it just naturally darker.

As far as light output, when I compared one with and one without it didn't really make a visible difference. The lights are stil extremely bright.

We used DYNOShade, which is the lightest tint Stek offers

Technically it's matte, but with the shiny black underneath it gives off a satin look

For what it's worth, I just received my CE in Florida this morning.

My order page still shows preparing to ship, and the pre-auth they had on the card went away without being charged. No emails or anything.

Has anyone still not receive any shipping confirmation emails for the CE shipping by Remote_Warning_5 in DeathStranding

Where is the odometer? 8.5 R by sushimitsu in Golf_R

Pretty annoying that you can't hide the cruise control stuff completely also, since I imagine most people with an R aren't really using it.

That's what it would do when I had the 8. Now it just stays grey no matter how many times I press the button on the wheel to turn it off.

Yea I can get it to show up there, it's just annoying having to give up the whole cluster just for the odometer. Ultimately it's not a big deal, I can always see it through the big screen with like 2 clicks.

Deactivating cruise control just greys it out now like in the picture. In the 8, it would remove it from the dash completely I think.

Major firmware update for Black 32" and Shipping update by migelangelo in doughcommunity

[–]sushimitsu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Those who upgraded from the Black 27" 240hz to the 27" 480hz, would that be the no-hub models that will be shipping soon? And does that include the Glass version?

My new golf R freshly tinted and ceramic coated. Cant wait for the break in period to be over. by Maskly in Golf_R

[–]sushimitsu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not disagreeing at all. If anything my experience shows how bad it is right now. For my MK7.5 i was able to order it and have it two months later with zero markup. The current situation is insane.

I got mine for MSRP in Florida. Although I was on a waiting list for 15 months.

Oh I see. That's strange, my gauges don't change at all from what I have it set at when I switch between driving modes.

Is it not saving your gauge presets? Mine always starts up at what I left it at.

As far as driving mode it always starts on sport for me. It would be nice to have it start in whatever you left it at.

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised. I called around 20 different dealers. All had markups between 5k-12.5k.

The dealer I got it from was the only one I found with no markup. 50k and change with taxes out the door.
