Hey everyone!

I couldn't find a similar thread, so I thought I'd start a new one. If I missed it, my apologies, I'll delete this post and repost in that thread. If I didn't, how do you get that little color wheel icon next to the thread title? :)

I picked up my 2023 Premium EAWD in Vapor Blue Metallic last night and thought I'd share some pics

Thanks for sharing it's beautiful. I have a 2022 IBSM GT and have been trying to find what others have done regarding striping/customizing the exterior as well should anyone read this and have some thoughts or pictures to share

Yes it does. It's not for everybody, but I'm a fan of the look and I'm eager to get it on the Vapor Blue.
I was intrigued by your choice, so I priced it out. In my case, I am trying STEK. $8K for matte, which looks not too far off from other SUV, though pricey. More than going from GT to GTPE. You’d think with all that glass on top there’d be a price break. Sorry for the continued creep :)

Yeah, wrapping the full car is not an inexpensive proposition. Lots of people do a partial wrap and some of those people regret not doing the full thing. One thing to keep in mind with the price is that, apparently, the MachE is a real P.I.T.A. to wrap because of all of the angles - very time intensive.

This topic will surely result in at least a page of thread creep and there's an entire section of this forum dedicated to such topics:

Cosmetic Maintenance & Protection (Wash, Wax, Detail, Body Repairs) | MachEforum - Ford Mustang Mach-E Forum, News, Owners, Discussions

I recommend reading some of the threads in that section that reference "PPF" or "ceramic" treatments. Here's a thread that points to some videos that explain the basics:

xpel vs ppf vs ceramic | MachEforum - Ford Mustang Mach-E Forum, News, Owners, Discussions
Much appreciated! I do forget sometimes to search threads when the topics go down a rabbit hole from one topic to another.

I agree with you there. I am surpised a full wrap is that much for the Mach E, and I have had partial wraps (clear PPF for protection only; followed by ceramic coating everywhere) for my last 3 new cars (including full hood and front fenders) and it is well less than $2K for the partial stuff. Thus, I am going to get the same guy that did my other cars to quote the full car to see if there is A) Either a overall price increase (inflation maybe), B) regional prices better here, C) actual product maybe a price driver.

I will get back with what I find.

Gloss full wrap quote was $7300 for STEK, $700 less than matte. Only matte interests me in full wrap.

Beautiful! Thank you for posting - I have a Vapor Blue on order despite not having a good feeling of the color. I had a Sonic Blue mustang 20 years ago and was hoping Ford would have a similar option (grabber blue was too much for me...), but this blue/gray/green is gorgeous!

So, did you get it? Where are the photos?!
Yeah, I got it yesterday. Here is the only picture that I have taken so far. This was at the dealership yesterday. The picture does not do her justice. She is the breathtaking in person. The Vapor Blue and those curves, my god she is eye catching. And FAST. Mine is a Premium AWD Extended Range.

2022 Premium eAWD EXT Range

It was shipped mid November (I got the email Nov 14th) and it was delivered Dec 1st to Northern Illinois. My original estimated delivery date was 12/9/2022 - 12/15/2022.

Cars look great, guys! Can't wait to get mine! Quick question : When did you order the car? I ordered almost the exact same car ('23 Vapor Blue Premium AWD Extended Range but with the White interior) on Sept 16... Sadly, I'm still waiting on a build date. I have priority code 10 too.

I also ordered mine on the the first day (8/30/2022) build was 11/12, and delivery is supposed to be 12/17 - 12/23. I'm in Chicago.

My scheduled delivery range was 11/27 - 12/3 and it arrived at the dealer on 12/2. So you should just make it. I am in Southern Illinois just outside of St Louis. It felt good knowing that I would get the full rebate. And don't forget about the application for the Illinois rebate. That's $4000 that you don't want to forget about. You will want to take that paper with you to the dealership because they have to sign part of it.

yeah, thanks for the tip! Although pretty sure I won't get the State credit, the income reqs are pretty low, but I'll fill the paperwork. I did get an email a little while ago from Ford asking me to "Complete the Purchase" so I think that means it was shipped to the dealer? I got a ways into the online purchase before getting stalled, I'll chk/w the dealer tomorrow.
