    Yes agree with both statements; inspection I would support once/yr. Too much junk falling of cars, too little brake remaining so rear enders, etc. But............revenue generated/cost should allow reasonable (I know, subject to opinion) compensation to service provider with any remainder...

    Just an FYI.... Florida legislature is currently working Senate Bill SB 92 through its process. The importance is its inclusion of a front license plate in addition to the rear for all cars.

    Pedal Commander or Sprint Booster for Lotus Emira Turbo I4

    Website for Sprint Booster lists only Elise and Exige-no Emira. Sounds like a nice addon though, and would consider primarily for theft/valet use if/when available.

    Any way to fix the brake dust?

    Good to hear; on my GT with matte/satin black, this made no difference-just did wheels on Emira siilver gloss, and would be nice if this is effective-we'll see.

    Alarm going off for no reason

    The plastic side panels, and two central covers need removing; rubber shield is under if fitted. Easily seen; it is a "rube goldberg" fix (hope it works) and may need adjusting depending on how good a job was done with initial install/fitting. I adjusted mine.........

    Red Exclamation Mark in dash

    Thinking......the owner manual notes only a RED color for the general warning triangle and relates this warning to other faults which "could affect the safety or drivability..." of the car. Today added gas to my car when warning light for low fuel displayed, along with general warning triangle...

    Rubber door grommets?

    So, @crestima what was build date of your car? Date of 12/23 @Aero shows "original" design, and yours shows "upgraded"? Would this give credence to Lotus addressing water retention (noted by others) should yours have been built after 12/23? If so, would think Lotus (hopefully)...

    Poll for Those with Paint Blistering / Bubbling Defect

    So, if blistering occurs, at some point could not all of the chemical reaction resulting in CO2 gas/bubbles eventually be self limiting since all chemicals "used up" (pardon technical terminology:rolleyes:)?
