Default V8 22 Build

Pulled the trigger last week on a 2022 110 V8 schedule to arrive in March however I’m aiming for May not to be disappointed, specially with delays that may arise…

I went for Black with Black gloss wheel and Black pack. Since the Carpathian Edition is not available in Canada I will have the car wrap in a similar color.
I’m only debating if I should powder coat the rear calipers and if I should leave the hood Black or wrap it ..thoughts?

Personally, wrap the hood. Front calipers on the V8 are already blue, no? Just do the back to match?

Yes front calipers are blue but rear are Black, so yes doing the back would make sense

EMV007 have you had an update on your delivery? I'm in Ontario with a V8 also due early March with a build date of Jan 14. Checked with my SA on the 14th and the status hadn't changed but at least the dates weren't pushed out either. I reached out today for an update but no response yet.

Actually heard back over a week ago and ETA is May 29th.
Hopefully they will be no delays as I placed my order mid September.
