Carbon pack?

$20k for some bling and "the" seats seems a bit rich (I don't want CCB)- even at this end of the scale. Is everyone optioning them in?

Hey mynameisplayer I optioned the carbon exterior pack and the carbon seats and left out the ceramic brakes. Still overpriced but a little better than full carbon park

I went for the full pack (inc brakes), if your getting two of the options adding the third via the pack offered a pretty good discount. At least that was the case when i ordered back in March.

Nope, not a fan of overpriced plastic. The seat might be good for a track day but not practical as a DD. The exterior carbon pack will get damaged very soon on Australia's shitty road.

I'm a recreational cyclist. I sit on a 100gm carbon seat for 5 hours at a time. These carbon seats are like a lounge chair in comparison

I sat in the seats and liked them. Then I sat in the normal seats and liked them too. The looks of the bucket seats are stunning, but was not worth the extra money for me.
The ceramic brakes won't be needed as I do not plan to do regular track days.
For the external package: This was hard to decide as I did like the parts but liked the black look to my color more and decided to go without and then see what the aftermarket will bring as parts in case I wanted a change in some time.
