All the lc500 I'm seeing at work have white interiors including white floor mats! Good luck with that!

I am having some carpet mats made in navy blue for that very reason!

I’d also recommend channeling your inner Miami Vice and going for white jeans if possible. Slip on loafers optional. My last car was cream, almost white and blue jeans were a nightmare..

Blue driving moccasins already purchased and  Mrs. F has been instructed that blue denim is prohibited.

Wind Deflector - has anyone any feedback on the wind deflector? I saw a few of you were looking to buy one and just wondered what you thought about it?

As previous post mines a genuine one, all one thousand pounds worth. It works very well. Draught is noticeably reduced to the point my wife (who has MUCH more hair than me) is more than happy in the car with hair and roof down. Nice quality catches with rubberised non rattle ends - you can slide them and then flick them up to fix them into the unlocked/removal position which makes removal and refixal (new word) a doddle. I’ll say yes, recommended, but the price is completely ridiculous- honestly if I was actually spending money separately on one I’d get the cabriosupply version although I agree it looks like it sits higher than the OEM one.

Check eBay out and select European sellers as well - much cheaper at £434 plus postage - I’ve no idea if tax would be applied on import.

I would echo the comments above. Works well but expensive. I didn't  like the look of the higher sitting one. I got a good deal on new car order and just viewed the cost of the wind shield as giving back some of the discount and currently am glad I did.
