Welcome to the forum and congrats on the new Atlas! You have a side profile pic of those rims by chance? VW has already hinted at R line variants of the Tiguan and Touareg, so there's a chance we could see it on the Atlas as well in the future.

Thanks and no pics yet. Letting my wife get accustomed to driving this tank before I install them. Yes, I heard that the R-Line appearance package will be available on the SEL premiums in 2019 but we couldn't wait with another baby due in 3 weeks. The Q5 gets uncomfortable fast with infant seat or rear facing convertible.

northstar, I had XPEL self healing paint protection installed on my Atlas and it is really optically clear and has a lifetime warranty, you might want to look into it, if you go to Xpel web site and click on dealer/ installer list you might find someone in your area to check with.

thanks for mentioning that

I usually spend some time lurking on autopia and see it being one of the most common paint protection methods.
do keep us posted on how it holds up especially to the elements during winter if you live in northern regions.
