Hi, wondering if you eventually went with the stealth ppf and how did it turn out? Where can you get stealth ppd+tint for only $5100?

Call around to a local place near you. You can often find someone small who does a good job around that price. I'd say $5-6k for full PPF + tint is a normal price.

If you just care about front end only PPF (hood, fenders, a-pillars, mirror caps, etc.), the going price is ~$2-2.5k.

yes I did, vehicle just finished production and is headed to the Halifax port. However I did change my colour choice to Liquid Copper instead of Oxford Green.

For the PPF+tint thing, I talked to a few local businesses around with good reviews let them know it would be cash which immediately knocked off the tax and whatever their card machine charges and then just negotiated the price telling them its special and they can use it for social media marketing since it would be with them for a month. Original quote was 5500 for just PPF, final was 5100 with tint and ppf

Finally put my name on a M3CX waitlist in Jan2023 and was recently told I’m next in line. I’m going to be leasing the vehicle and as this is my first lease, my first bmw, and overall first brand new car that’s nice I want to be as prepared as possible and make the car somewhat personalized.

Because it’s a lease I don’t want to go to overboard with ownership mods but what are some must do’s/must haves that are relatively inexpensive to enhance ownership experience?

Planned + estimate $$:
-Full stealth PPF + window tint $5100 all in
(I specced Oxford Green (430) with Fjord Blue and I think it would make it stand out more)
-Winter tire and wheel package 3000 ish with tpms
(cheaper side compared to BMW quote of 6k, and reasonable for X-Ice tires which were quoted at $1210/pair at Costco)
-Tint/Smoke out reflectors $20
(orange reflectors look ugly imo)
-Looking into radars but hard to find good and out of the way units

LMK what else is a must have/do for the G80 that would enhance the overall ownership experience and look of the car?

edit: also planning on mud gaurds
Who doing full PPF and window tint for only 5100??

Mine would have been $5k, but I decided for the cheaper front/track pack only + tint for $3k instead.

You just have to look for the right guy.

Thank you but I think I may have worded this a lil wrong😅. Everything is planned and set in stone including the 1 month stay. I work a 3weeks on and 1week off schedule out of town so the 1 month thing is easily doable.

I’ve just made all the prep in advance for the car and gave deposits to have my spot and ordered everything this forum said.
