Upon arrival.....

My F56 fJCW showed up at the dealer yesterday in all it's glory! JCW Pro Suspension, JCW Pro Front Splitters, and some factory paint matched trim pieces before I will be taking delivery.

Stay tuned.....

Nice spec! Wish I had known about the pro add-ons when I ordered my JCW, much of which really should be "standard equipment" on a JCW imo.

I was really torn on the seats, but opted for the Dinamica red-lined instead of the std cloth. Expensive option, where over $2,000 could have gone to other options. We all (or most anyway) have to stop somewhere, or F56 JCW's can easily approach $50k!

More pics please when you get it all set up and detailed...will be awesome no doubt!

John

I purchased the JCW Pro add-ons after the fact. I'm just having the dealership put everything on before I pick up the car. But, to your point, they should come standard, or at the very least, options from the factory.

Mine spec'd out (generously optioned) at $39,670. I was hesitant about the Black Jack Mirror Caps, but I'm totally digging them after seeing them on the car.

I'm hoping to take delivery next Sunday.

Very nice. I'm looking forward to seeing more pics especially the painted trim pieces. I am having mine done as well.

You going to add the rear diffuser or the jcw pro exhaust?

I'm getting the headlight/taillight trim rings, grille surround, beltline trim, door handles and gas cap painted to match the midnight black metallic. Should look real clean.

I'm not getting any other parts added right now. Wanna keep it pretty clean. I'm a less is more kind of guy.

LOTS of pics to follow 👍

The beltline is going to look awesome painted. I've only seen them taped in person. I'm also skipping the pro exhaust. For the $ opted for the coilovers instead. I'm on the fence about the rear diffuser. Thinking if I have the trim painted the diffuser will look out of place if not painted as well.

Was at the dealer yesterday to do all the financials and paperwork. The bad news is, the car wasn't there for me to drool over after they did the initial detailing. The good news is, it was a the body shop getting the trim pieces painted!

Should be back at the dealer later today, and then the coilovers get installed. Still on track for a Sunday delivery
