Default Wrapped! Carbon Wrap front grill, mirrors, and rear bumper

Finally got the SQ8 back from full PPF, Ceramic Coating and wrapped the front perimeter grill, air intake, mirrors and lower rear bumper strip with a carbon wrap. Open to feedback (good/bad) on carbon wrap......

I think it looks great. Even though I’m typically more of a “gloss” guy the matte against the Mythos Black looks classy.

i agree - its subtle but helps define the lines a bit better on black paint. In person the contrast is better vs pics.

You mentioned that you just purchased the SQ8, did you buy it at fill MSRP? I went to my local dealership and they told me there are no discounts off of the Sticker for any of the SQ8 they had in stock.

Hello, yes purchased April 30th. Got $3K off MSRP, plus a few packages thrown in (dent & paint protect). Also, my trade in was valued $3K higher thus the total benefit on the deal was $6K plus the add-ons $1K = $7K.

Hi I thought that would be the case I am assuming that your MSRP was north of $120k and your discount was approx. 5% (including your trade premium). That seems reasonable to me. In my past purchases I would seek to achieve a 5-10% discount off of MSRP. Do you mind if I asked how you purchased the SQ8, leased, financed, or paid cash. Again thank you for the info.
