Sharp looking ride Chris, congrats! I know you'll enjoy! Now to really enjoy, get the P* software and make sure the car has been updated with the 2.0 flash.
Oh, have you ordered the rebel blue wrap yet?

I think you made an excellent choice! Congrats!
btw, make sure your car has legit P* software, as I can see you have the old style badge vs. the new slanting badge that comes with the 2018 flash kit. If it has the P* software and the most recent 2.0 system update, you should see "POLESTAR" in place of "DYNAMIC", listed in your drive mode selections screen.

Thanks! I finished wrapping the windows. I need to do the chrome on the door handles and swap out the mirror covers to black ones. Then its on to the front bumper cover.

On those wheels did you end up using any spacers or is that with the ~5mm difference in offset?

Blacked out the exhaust tips with a semi-gloss black paint and wrapped the accent chrome strip on the lower valence.

Greetings from Canada. I haven’t picked mine up yet, but thought I’d post a pic from the test drive. I’m replacing my 2011 Mercedes R350 Bluetec (seen in the background). Despite being widely derided by the automotive press the R350 was a fantastic car for me, so long as the warranty was in effect...
My new (for me) car is an early 2019 V90 T6 CC. It’s a low mileage (less than 9,000 km) Volvo Canada Exec Car. Crystal white with amber leather interior. Premium and Luxury package (and the Bowers and Wilkins). I’m having the Polestar tune done and it’s coming with a 19 inch winter tire package. So all ready for winter.
I loved my R-class but looking forward to driving my first Volvo!

Great excuse to be lazy and drive from house to lake at the cottage (fairly steep, grass road). Tried HDC on way down - works well.

2018 S90 Inscription T6 with everything on, it has served me well for ~22k miles now. Excellent road trip car, still can't get enough of it!
You beat me in timeliness, I just received my metrorestyling order of 3M 1080 brushed steel wrap yesterday. Hoping to start wrapping window and door trim this weekend. I ordered enough for everything less the exhaust tips (grill, lower bumper chrome, door sills, window trim, door handles, and rear valence) which i figured I'd save for after the rest. If you have any tips or trouble spots with the wrap and recommendations I'd certainly be grateful. Car looks great, definitely liking the look of the chrome delete. Hopefully I'll have some pics to share soon enough.
Look forward to seeing what you do!
I precut strips wide enough and long enough for each section of window trim. I did the rear C-pilar as one piece, then trimmed. I recommend pulling the grille to wrap it. Just take your time, have heat gun and use a squeegee to get the material around the backside of trim and under any rubber seals. Cut a little extra material to work with around the trim. Use a sharp x-acto blade.
