Sorry about the rock chips. Hopefully it can be fixed like new by a touch up pro.
I sent three requests through their website to find a dealer in my area and never got a response. Will definitely stop pursing this product.

Cheers to that! Nothing in life is perfect, and if something is perfect, it really hasn’t served its purpose of living!I like to think of the scars we collect on our cars as badges of honor. Evidence of our engagement with the car and the world around us. Hopefully there are good memories that accompany the wear and tear. In the Seiko watch collecting world they call it wabi. The patina that collects over time.(

Kind of like seeing a lion in a zoo. Still, the first ding is the worst. The rest will be easier!

The rest of the car is good right now. And cleaning was super easy so it has its benefits.
The protection benefits will still have to be determine over time. Idk how my big the rock was, could have been a big rock but little mark, will never know. I think it’s best to do PPF on these high impact surfaces and the rest in revivify. I might get these area done in PPF after I fix the hood since I have the entire car in revivify.

Did you get a ceramic coat or anything?
I have not anything on the calipers yet. I got the entire car done with revivify, the liquid PPF.
I LOVE the yellow calipers but I dread cleaning them. I did some ceramic on one of mine (ran out of time) and to see how much difference it made. It helps quite a bit in keeping them looking good. I'll have to try that Sticky Citrus stuff because my wheel Meguiar "no scrub" wheel cleaner isn't quite cutting it.
Glad you figured it out. I really wanted the yellow calipers, but ordered black for ease of maintenance because I know myself and I wouldn't put in the time to keep them looking good.
Hey fellow Carolinians, If you've already taken delivery of your Emira, please take a minute to complete this form and share some deets if you haven't already done so. I created a customer delivery tracker to try and shed some light on the delivery process, timing, which dealers are delivering more/fewer Emiras, etc.
TIA, Pete Zierz

Lotus Emira Customer Delivery Tracker
Please only complete this form after you have taken delivery of your Lotus Emira. This form is to shed some light on how rapidly Emiras are finding their way into customer hands. The initial impetus is to track delivery of North American FE 1.0 and 2.0 cars, but may be expanded globally and to...

Photoshoot with a local photographer. We got kicked out but not before he got some sick shots. Gotta wear hard hats and safety vests next time. OSHA can't stop us

It's a plant in Gold Hill, NC
Several of us local to the Triangle will be attending the Triangle British Classic Car Show in Raleigh on Saturday. Anyone else want to join us or plan to attend? I've been once before and it was a hoot! At least one of our group is registered for the show. I'm just planning to be a casual observer and check it out for an hour or two in the morning.

Anyone with an order at flow lotus hear anything about deliveries from the 5/13 shipment?
I keep meaning to, but yard work is calling this morning. Would love to see a few pics of the Lotus area if you get a chance. Is that at every C&C now or was today something special again?
They have been there a few times but this is the first time they were a "featured sponsor" I believe. Got to park in the VIP section right in the middle of the action:
