I decided to compile list of things I saw on the proto that I didn't see on the production model. So far, I've noticed a few differences after looking at the actual photos and videos:

The black part of the bumpers are not carbon fiber like the proto.

The gtr brake aren't present. Instead, were getting a 4+2 even on the limited edition.

The 2-piece rotors are gone. I'm seeing a single piece rotor. Not sure if it's better or not to go with a 2-piece design.

The sport Maxx gt600 tires are gone. We get the s007 for the performance model and some Yokohama for the sports model.

The neutral camber on the wheel is also gone as they are setup for actual handling regulations. Tires need a negative camber to accommodate for turning and sidewall flex.

Does the productions model seem a bit taller and the gap has widened between the fender and tire?

The rear side markers are present in the production vs none in the proto. This is due to DOT regulations.

We get a strut bar that I didn't see on the Infiniti or leaked photos.

That's all I can think of as of now. Anyone else see something I might've missed?

You're right, Dupree. They need to integrate a keyhole in the event that the battery dies and the owner needs to get in the mechanical way.

The rotors aren't the same as well. Proto have a much larger drilled rotor. We get a slightly smaller, non-drilled rotor. Drilled rotors are a nuisance to me because of a slight whistle sound from the holes.
