Shook, I looked for that gray 7.4 but at year end couldn't find one in my size so got a white 7.4 like Jarrettein's. Your's looks handsome with the fenders properly installed. I'm surprised a shop would have sent it out with the first version, the type of work that has resulted in me never returning to a bike shop once I get the bike out of their hands.
I wish I got my 7.4 in white! The bike was a bday gift from my then girlfriend (and now wife). The white 2011 fx 7.3 I had is now her bike. She rides with 28mm tires, I have 25mm’s on mine. Both are the XL or 22.5” size.

I love my bike now that I have it the way I want it with a few mods. Nowadays I usually have a bike trailer attached to it and take my 2 year old to local parks but I love how it’s setup. Still speedy but absolutely practical around town.

And yes, I was pretty annoyed I had to bring the bike back to have the fenders done properly. This shop has been around a while and I’m sure I’m not the only one that’s gotten fenders installed there. I will still go there bc when I got my fx’s there, they all cane with “free lifetime adjustments” so I still have to go to the shop and play nice
