Correct, the interior has not changed all along since we both like it with Zen wood and Blue/Black leather and both builds are the identical except for the exterior color.

A full wrap gets pretty expensive (I've been told $10K or more). I'm going to follow BobZ's advise and only apply protective film to the high risk areas of my G 63 when it arrives one of these days You should discuss this with an experienced installer with a good reputation. In my case, I want to protect the front bumper, fenders, headlights, side mirrors, probably the entire hood and the rear quarter panels. I haven't got a quote for this yet, but my guess is around $3K. Still not cheap, but I can live with it. Then, I'm going to have the entire truck protected with ceramic coating. Lastly, (and most important to me because I live in Utah...rock city) is ClearPlex (or equivalent) windshield protective film (around $300 or so).

Your estimated prices are close but expect to pay less for the PPF, which is good thing!
