Thanks everyone for the compliments; the car is really sharp.
I’m a little bit disappointed with GM’s quality control. Prior to dropping it off to the dealer tonight to install the front splash guards, I found three defects to the exterior.
1- Small imperfection on the top right hand side of the rear spoiler.
2- Small paint bubble on the roof
3- Hood rap not fully sealed right below the windshield.
Brought the above defects to the dealer’s attention and I’m concerned about having my hood re-wrapped and possibility of the roof repainted. I’ll snap some pictures tomorrow when I pick the car up and post.

I was eligible for supplier pricing since I'm a credit union member and I got lucky with a $1000.00 private offer that popped up the other night.

I used Google chrome and cleared my browsing history before starting. I clicked on adjust payments a few times and changed the down payment amount and interest rate a few times. I also hit request quote a few times, but the private offer popped up on the screen where you can select request quote, locate a dealer, value your trade-in and credit score information.
Good luck.

The hood rewrap is not a big deal and non destructive. No worries there. As far as the other two flaws just keep in mind you may get more as the miles pile on. Unless you dont plan on ever driving it, a minor paint flaw may not be as bad as a repainted section of your car. Just something to consider.

The only people that notice small imperfections are the perfection minded owners. Anybody else will just be glassy eyed jealous of your car just the way it is.

For the wrap you can go around and press it down and it will adhere and fix it. I had the same thing on mine and I just went around all the edges and pressed it and it looks perfect 2200 miles later.
