It's Mark from CA. Here's a pic of the Suntek wrapped and ceramic pro coated X.Paint protection film installation began this week. When Peter from Jun's Tinting came out to check the car and to pick up the car key and garage door opener from me, he noted that the left rear bumper was slightly warped and one of the tabs that fastens the bumper to the body was showing. Looking at it closely, I could see what he was talking about though nothing is really that visible when just looking at the area. Feeling the area though, you can feel the warp.
Talked to Jenny at the SC who graciously offered to come out to the house to inspect because the car was tied up getting the rest of the paint protection film applied (except for the rear bumper - I got permission from Jenny). She just came out last night and noted the issue and said that she would be ordering a replacement factory painted rear bumper and would let me know when it comes in so it can be installed. As always, the SC is top notch and Tesla service rocks!
Once the majority of the film is in place and tinting done during the rest of this week, I'll finally be able to drive the car! And then to Shea's next week Saturday for Opticoat with wheels off (will have to go back after new bumper in place and its paint protection film gets placed to get that part opticoated separately).
Whew, finally coming together!
Oooooh shiny! She's gorgeous man, congrats! The coating looks sweet. Are the kids having fun with the doors?
My rear bumper is scheduled to be replaced next week Monday, final Xpel to get applied on Tuesday, and Opticoat to be applied on Saturday. Busy week for my X!
Just noticed my #117xx VIN has appeared in My Tesla sometime in the last 48 hours. I emailed Daniel earlier this week and he said a September delivery is the likely timeframe.
Tesla just announced a Model X 60D config, which is just a 75D software limited to 60. I've already sent an email to Daniel to see if there's a possibility to downgrade to save a little $$. I don't need the extra 30 miles (200 vs. 237 per the design studio.)
Looks like I can downgrade, but it would delay my delivery further. I'm not sure I understand how a software change impacts hardware production timing and delivery. Oh well....

Could be any number of things that cause them to require this. (I'm sure you already knew that). But one could be that they don't change your configure at the car. They let ti roll on through as was requested and turn it into a new onhand stock at a SC. And your new configuration moves to the back of the line.
How long was the wait? You've waited this long already. I always regret not getting what I wanted (especially when I am paying for it).

First 75D in the 808, waited 3 years
Any X owners here able to recommend a sun shade for the massive windshield?
I really wanted the heatshield gold series but not willing to pay $76 just for shipping out of the mainland

Interesting that crash of the Model X was not caused by Autopilot.
Tesla says Autopilot not turned on in Model X crash NHTSA is investigating (update)

Sorry I guess that would be me but I don't have a sunshade. Haven't felt the need for one to date.

Being scared of that is wonderful isn't it? Congratulations ! Surely looks great.
