    Car is status 90 for three weeks now, so I'm told it should arrive in the next 2 weeks or so.

    Hi there. I don't think I follow? The rear air ducts are not visible in the production image.

    I believe you're looking at the side splitters that are painted (code CEIS for carbon on those). I believe the OP ordered the rear CF air ducts, which is code CEAD - those are the carbon treatment back around by the tail lights.

    Car looks good!

    Our cars may be on the same boat in next couple of weeks!

    I've had cars from all the competition, but my first
    ferrari.

    For a long time, I didn't think I'd ever buy a modern F-car, but now I've done it, I have to admit there's definitely something special in waiting for a Ferrari to arrive!

    Enjoy it when it comes.

    Its great to see a first time buyer get a new car. It can be difficult and it takes patience but it is possible.

    Looks amazing!
