I'm not aware of anybody who wraps the roof because there is no paint there, but I could be wrong.

100% agree with this. Chips come in all angles, not just the front. Also, with the back bumper wrapped, I no longer worry about shopping cart dings, and also don't worry about scratching the bumper putting things into the rear trunk.
FWIW, a car hit the side of my driver side door, and luckily the PPF saved my door from a repaint and touch up.
Just had my new X covered in Suntek Ultra. Love the way this product shines with no orange peel. Windows get tinted Monday.

I have full body wrapped in Suntek Ultra Matte, the roof where the sensors are and the crossbeam are wrapped in clear to maintain the clean look of glass...this protects from bird stuff...when they gave me full wrap price it was included...

I didn't wrap the roof, but the entire roof isn't glass. If you weren't doing a clear wrap, I could see wrapping the roof as well. Or potentially changing the colored areas to look like an all black roof. Or heck, tinting the windows; since that's basically a wrap.
How the heck did you get that? Were you off-roading or something? I can’t imagine that happened on driving a normally paved highway.
I am definitely wrapping the doors, I plan on taking the MX to NC for skiing in Jan/Feb so I am sure this is the kind of roads it will be exposed to...

Everytime I look I the bill keeps going up...I guess is the price to pay for driving this cars, I took delivery of my white MX 100D for father day, I am absolutely amazed by the car. Cannot wait to mount the Vossen NV2s
Congrats on the delivery!
FWIW, I never regretted getting the car wrapped, even at the hefty price tag

Forgot to mention, with a full body PPF, you no longer have to worry about car washes.
With my other cars without PPF, I often have to do a 2 bucket wash with grit guards and incredipad microfiber pads just for the body, and a separate bucket and mitt for the wheels alone.
With my MX in a fully body PPF, I often do a waterless or a rinseless wash, or if its really dirty, a single bucket wash with a pressure washer. Much quicker and no longer worry about scratches

Good point, I guess I will also need to factor-in the savings...Forgot to mention, with a full body PPF, you no longer have to worry about car washes.

For those of you interested in seeing how the NV2s look like on the Model X, here you go..

Thanks! I wanted them to look as stock as possible so I ordered them in Satin Black. I love the looks and so far it does not seem to affect much of the range, though I need more time to give a definite feedback.
