New baby supplies
Just placed a factory order for a 2016 A6 prestige with driver assist. While I wait what "supplies" should I consider buying/researching?
What do you guys get/do with your new cars?
Thinking things like
Roadside emergency kit
jumper cables
one of those bumper buddies (I live in Queens NY)
window tint
paint sealer/wax (car wont be garaged so thinking some type of protection would be a good thing)
those fancy driving gloves with holes in the knuckles (kidding on this one)

If you plan to wash your car yourself (which you probably should if you don't want it swirled up):
- Two wash buckets with grit guards
- A foam gun
- Microfiber wash mits (several)
I just put 3M Crystalline window tint on my A6... CR40 on the sides/rear and CR90 on the windshield.

Since you are parking outside, I would recommend a paint protection coating. Some names that I have in my paint protection folder are:
Opti-Coat
Ceramic Quartz
G techniq
SImoniz Glasscoat
Cilajet
22PLE Coating
Modesta BC-03
I'm not saying that one is better than the other. Things change too quick. I know that there are several large detailing shops in and around the metro area. I believe that one in NJ is a AW sponsor but the name escapes me.

I'll have this done on mine next month. I plan on the whole car except the roof and tail lights. Should I bother putting paint protection products on the roof? Mine will be garaged most of the nights.
