Why would you do that?

I'm sure you could get a high quality paint job from a good body shop for much cheaper?

Wraps look kinda different to paint. I think Rich rebuilds's matte blue/purpelish Model S looks amazing and with a wrap. But I wouldnt spend that much money on a wrap....

Wrap does have some advantages too i.e. it works almost as well as a PPF for protecting from rocks, protects the paint underneath and can be taken off and restores the car to its original paint. the downside is if you get scratches, scrapes etc you have to replace the film and the wrap will only last 3-4 years.

Imho not worth it. There have been discussions here before on PPF vs regularish polishing +- ceramic coating +- eventual respray.
I think there is no question that the latter option is better but theres heaps of people swearing by PPF.
 
Hansshow Power Frunk just arrived! Going to get some video and pictures of the T Sportline lowering springs today, was waiting for them to settle a bit but honestly looks perfect how it is now, also want to do it before I hyperdip the wheels this weekend. I took lots of video and pictures before it got lowered for a true comparison! Also found a authorized XPEL dealer in Burbank who quoted me a GREAT price on a full stealth PPF! Getting a few paint defects fixed on July 22nd (came that way from the factory, small peeling near the headlight) and then it's off to get PPF, super stoked
 
Few pictures of the lowering springs from T Sportline - 1" lower all the way around, 25mm spacers on the rear and 18mm spacers on the front. Will get a video up soon!

First picture is stock height -

Hyperdipping the wheels black as we speak!
