Also like this nice and simple look. Not sure what I want to do with mynosecone, but this looks nice.

Looks sick Jerry! I'm also interested in the cost. Can you PM or share with the group? Did they have to sand it?
Joining the pearl white club...
Just ordered a Pearl White P85D. Checked every box on the order (except the jump seats).
I ordered Tan Interior with Carbon accents/ black headliner. Anyone have that combo; especially tan with carbon? I also ordered the exec seats. From looking at the pictures, the two tone seems to adds a lot of contrast to the "shapely" rear exec seats that I am hoping looks good.

Here's Sacramento area recommendations in no particular order:
- Stewart Customs and Collision on Roseville Rd
- Cozz'z on Power Inn
- Anderson Bros in West Sacramento
- TNT Autobody in South Sacramento

Cost was about $1200. They said prep was a lot of work because the paint doesn't stick well. I also had them wrap the bottoms with XPEL.

No that was the body shop work, another shop did my front camera install, xpel on bottoms and decals on calipers for about $600 total. Also added some red accents!

Those of you that had your bottom trim painted, can you tell me if they had to remove the parts or were they just painted in place by taping/covering the other areas? Reason I ask is because I got an estimate but the shop says they have to remove the front and back bumpers and the rear doors, in order to remove the bottom panels, then prime, sand and paint the parts and put everything back in. Obviously that's a lot of work and the estimate is more than double what Jerry paid in New York of all places (assuming a bit here, hope you don't mind 
. The shop is reputable and they do a lot of work with Tesla and other high end cars.
In any case, your help is greatly appreciated as I really want to get this done sooner rather than later.

@REBroker, my shop that I commissioned had to remove front apron (and front bumper), side skirts and rear bumper. The shop I worked with had experience with performing this modification, so they knew exactly what needed to be done. I confirmed with them removing the rear door is not required to get the rockers (side skirts off the car). However, they did notate that 1st time shops might have a tricky time getting the rockers off without removing the rear wheels.
