Dealer Prep new M340i

What should I tell my dealer to do and not to do when my car arrives. I plan to take it to get PPF immediately at a different place. Should I say leave factory stickers and everything on?

Depending on where you live, some places install front license plate brackets automatically

Talk to your detailer and follow their advise. I had the same issue, I let the dealer follow their normal pre-delivery process for the interior and asked them not to touch the exterior including the plastic wrappings. If you leave the outside wrappings on, when dropping the car at the your detailer, stick around for a bit and record them peeling off the plastics. This way, if you discover any abnormalities, you would know who to chase and have proof.
