Should I get XPel right away after delivery or wait?

Drove my MX straight from pick-up to Glistening Perfection (Costa Mesa) for Xpel and CQuartz on top of that. Also had interior seats treated and windows tinted. Have not regretted it yet. Looks fantastic.

What did you get applied on the interior seats?

I agree that absolutely as soon as possible is best. The Lemon Car dilemma I would work out as follows: weigh the probability of receiving a lemon and the cost of having XPel'd it against the probability of receiving a car that you expect to own for ____X____ years (and sell for ____$Y____ thereafter) that received a few nicks and scratches while you were waiting to get it wrapped.

Our own Model X drove for 2,000 miles before we wrapped it. The sole reason for this delay was because the XPel service had a backlog. And, of course, our car did indeed get a few frontal nicks in the interim - ouch.

My strongest suggestion, then, is if you do decide to get it wrapped, schedule the appointment right now for the day you take delivery.

Another suggestion: discuss with the XPel-ler whether they will wrap the seat backs. I'm very happy to recommend that.

Not only did I have the front end wrapped at soon as I could (three days later) I also used the xPel tracwrap on the front end when I brought it home.
