There is a new pony is the coral in SF Bay Area

[MyLittlePony2022]

I got my 2022 MME GTPE in cyber orange. Now there are two Cyber Orange GTPE's in the Bay Area. In fact, my car got to meet Mach-N-Cheese, when they both were at the detailers. As soon as I get my custom black plate, I will name the car.

Ordered on 01-Oct 2021, arriving 29 weeks and 6 days later, picking it up from the dealer on 30-Apr-2022, which is 30 weeks and 1 day from when I ordered it. The dealer did no ADM, somewhat honored the price protection (checks in the mail) and I got my brother-in-laws dealer discount. Drove it home, parked it and then took it into my local detailer (Dynamic Detailing in Santa Clara, CA) as soon as they were open. I went with full PPF (10 year warranty) on the front end (bumper, headlights, hood, mirrors and fenders). Also added PPF on the lower rocker panel (part way up the door) on the A, B and C pillars, on the top part of the rear bumper and a small section (closest to the windscreen) of the pano-roof. I did ceramic coating (10 year warranty) and they did the entire car, wheels and windows.

I had to add accessories to the car. I loved what @Scooby24 did so I had them put black PPF on the rear. I was going to put the GT logo back but found a illuminated GT for Mustang coup, which is ordered and I will be putting it on in a week or so,. I will post pictures when it is done.

Add front and rear cameras (Thinkware) with battery back-up, Sto-N-Go front plate holder, 3D-floor mats and trunk mat. Hit the AOSK store on Amazon and added retractable trunk cargo cover, front console charging mat, screen protector and center console organizer. I also liked the post from @markboris so I had to order the 10" powered JL Audio sub, which will be installed later in June. Finally, added McGard black standard and locking lug nuts. I will add the jack lifting blocks and tow point stickers later on too.

We took it on a road trip down the coast (Highway 1.) Car ran great. We stopped at a local town (Pescadero) to get some coffee and visit the local goat farm, to pick up some cheese. Took a photo of the car in the lot (can see the goats in distance background). The bottom photo is in the shop getting the rear PPF put on the car.

What was the cost of the wrap? I live in Santa Clara and when mine lands, I want to wrap it.

The total cost of the wrap and ceramic, out the door, was $5K. However, as noted, I added a few extra items. I forgot to mention, I did the door sills and the door edges too, but those were only $100. He lists all his prices on his website. I upgraded to the silver ceramic coating so it had the 10 year warranty to go with the PPF. Reach out to Daniel, he can help answer any questions or if you want something custom, like I did.

Yep, the Cheesemobile was at the PPF detailer at the same time as your car!

Hey thanks! I searched the place in maps and drove over. It's so close. I talked to Daniel and will be going back, when I get my car. Did you get gloss? My car will be Space White and thinking about matte, we did that on our Tesla and it looks great; I need to think on this a bit more.

The wife says it is the same color as a California poppy, our state flower.

Yes, I got gloss. I think matte looks great on some cars, but I wanted my cyber orange to glow. I think you will be happy with the service and the outcome of the car.

Poppy would be a cool name!
Hello from Cheeto! I’m fifty miles from downtown SF. I often wander to the other side …?enjoy! Forgot to say, someone else already has Cheeto for the license, so I settled for MY GTPE.

Are the plates new? I don't remember seeing them previously. I saw you today as I was picking up my daughter from Fremont high.

YES finally got my awesome plate -- I was driving past the high school at 330p or so....

Nice thing about having to wait 30 weeks, you have time to think about what you want to do and time to research though the forum.

I wanted to add another shout to Dynamic Detailing. I decided to try to push the laws of physics and have matter occupy the same space at the same time. This science experiment proved the laws of physics still apply and I wound up removing some of the PPF and paint on the fend flare. I reached out to Daniel at Dynamic and he recommended a shop that he trusts. They did a great job and the prices for the work was what I expected to pay. The nice part was that Daniel trusted the shop to paint the flare correctly and to allow it cure before giving it back to me. Thanks to that, I quickly got into Dynamic and got the PPF and ceramic coating re-installed for a great price. The reason I bring that up, is many shops would gouge you when you come back for touch-up work. You are probably not going to go somewhere else, so they see it as an opportunity to overcharge you and make more money. Cannot say how great I have been treated by Daniel and his team, and I cannot recommend them enough.
