I love they way it looks. The pepper white with this color combo is fantastic. I got the grey and black checkers.

These do look really nice. I must say I'm not a huge fan of the new side scuttles with most color combos but the checkered works very nicely with the pepper white/black. I'm so jealous of everyone who already has their f56s haha.

really nice looking, the black/grey checkered scuttles and cover are super clean (and subtle) on the Pepper white. Good choice

I really haven't been a fan of those, but I think that combo looks great.

It's even got me considering doing the same to my BRG/black F56 when it arrives.

The scuttles were a determining factor for my wife on picking out her volcanic orange. Happy to say they look great here as well. Do they just attach with double-sided tape then?

The scuttles attach with some type of latex epoxy. Comes in this sausage looking package. it also came with sandpaper. I'm afraid to know what my dealer had to do with that. But I think I know. Good thing I love the way they look.

Sounds like we have a very similar build. Great minds, I guess

So , you purchased these from the dealer? I did not see these as an option when I ordered mine. I actually deleted the "blackjack" version. Decided it was too much for me.
Thank you also for your video review...I actually added the HUD because of your review!
