I can only answer the black pack question, yes it colours everything which was palladium into gloss black, you can specify keeping the bonnet/hood ducts in CF, the mirror casings in CF and the rear air intakes in CF or just have them all painted into the gloss black.
There is one slight oddity in that if you go all gloss black the front wing/fender LT carbon slats stay gloss carbon, they don't get the gloss black paint for some reason.

 

tb993 is correct.



Lower side intakes (bottom of panel just in front of rear wheel) and rear winglets (just behind rear wheel) are part of Exterior CF pack 2. door winglets are at the front lower corner of the door and also part of CF2.

Door closure panel I think is part of the aerobridge although it could be the rear face of the door jamb which you can only see when the door is open.

ALL exterior CF is gloss.

The cheapest way to get rid of all palladium is with the black pack however if you then start adding visual CF (except for pack 1 which you can add back at no cost) it will become very expensive, ie price of black pack plus Ext CF2 and or aerobridge and or diffuser. Defeats the reason for getting black pack.

As has been stated in another discussion, all the parts we have been discussing are made of CF, just different finishes, ie palladium, Gloss black or visual.

 

Thanks for the feedback, if the Packs are indeed Gloss CF that makes a lot of sense. I was unsure as the 720s Spider brochure actually calls out the packs are Gloss CF, whereas the 765LT one has removed that wording, and just says CF. Even the configurator visually shows the CF roof as non gloss CF, but that's maybe just a poor visual representation.

So looks like adding packs 2 & 3, then adding the Rear Diffuser and Aero Bridge, should ensure all palladium is gone and everything is gloss CF?

 

You don't need to add CF3 unless you want the roof as visual CF. Just add the front air intakes (eye sockets) as CF as the roof and top of doors are already gloss black, not palladium as standard.

If you do want the roof as visual CF you probably should also add the door uppers as visual CF as it would look odd otherwise, ie mixture of visual CF and gloss black roof.

Have a look through the product brief attached. It will explain most of what you are asking however you need to read the relevant sections carefully to properly understand it especially in the sections on weight saving and what is made of CF (visual or otherwise).

 

Yes, caught that too, I did keep CF3 and added the Door Uppers so now everything should be Gloss CF 👍

 

Is the dark palladium just the std palladium color or is is black?

 

Dark Palladium is a gloss dark grey. Painting it high gloss black is an option.

 

I don't think its black, that would reduce the appeal of the black pack. I think its like the 720. Can't be sure though as all the 765s we've seen are full visual CF.
