Hi to all,

I picked up my C8 Wednesday at the dealer and brought it directly to the Xpel installer. After two days for the installation of PPF and ceramic coating, finally she's home. Here are some pictures taken at the dealer and after the PPF and ceramic coating.
I can assure you that once you drive the C8, you will forget the waiting...
This is my first American car and I'm very pleased. I drove in the sport mode and I found that the suspension is very comfortable on the streets even without the magnetic ride with the Z51 package.
I really like the engine appearance package with the red engine cover and the front lift works great.
By the way, do C8 owners hand wash their cars or do they use the automatic car wash machine like Petro-Canada or similar?
Thanks!
Ian

Hi, where did you take the car for PPF and ceramic coating? Are you happy with the results.

My car is going in on Tuesday for Ceramic Pro Kavaca (PPF) on the front, mirrors and vents. It has ceramic coating built in. The rest of the car will get Ceramic pro coating and on the wheels. IMO, on paper, it's the best PPF on the market. It's "self healing" You must watch their video on it. Instant Healing, Ceramic Coated, Paint Protection Film (PPF) - KAVACA
I'm getting it done at CermicProMarkham I'll let everyone know how it goes.

Full front.
"The full front in paint protection film is $2100 in Ceramic Pro Kavaca which is the latest and most expensive film on the market. It’s got a 12 year warranty, has instant heal technology, is super clear and comes ceramic coated. "
The air vents would be $220 more = $2320.

Ceramic Pro Gold - Lifetime warranty
"Gold package includes a thorough wash, 3 step decontamination, prep wipe and the coats on paint, wheels, windows, headlights and tail lights. The price is $1600. 4 layers of 9H and one layer of Light". Whatever that means. :)
"4 days or so". It does take some time to dry I hear
 
My choice would be a new graphene coating. One of the brands is offered by Adams or Elfos. This is a DIY project (about $180.00cdn)but you could ask your installer about this.

Just took my car in for the PPF and ceramic. Let the withdrawal symptoms begin! If I can wait 375 days for the car I guess I can wait 6 more. lol
