Full body wrap PPF rear hatch seam?

[Kelmn07]

I’ve never considered a full wrap on my previous cars, and my first 3 was the first time ever using PPF (partial). But I’m really digging the way a stealth wrap on MSM looks. I talked to my installer and he warned that the rear is very difficult to do. If I want it in one piece it’s over $6k.
Because we’ve gone to him a few times (another 3 and rework after accidents) he would do it for $5,500 if I’m ok with the seam which is still more than I want to spend but he’ll include ceramic coating so I’m considering it.

He mentioned that most customers cover it with a spoiler, I don’t really want a spoiler though. Has anyone had full PPF on their Y with a seam? With or without a spoiler? Are you happy with how it looks?

Oh man I know! I have MSM and will eventually do a stealth wrap. I'm not aware of any seam issues - at least from the installers I've spoken to around the Boston area.

Yeah I'm still debating. $6k is more than I thought it was going to be, I know some folks make this point but at that point, that's about the cost of a full body paint if the condition got bad enough. I've seen some say they've paid around $4k but that's with TMC group buys and what not, I think.

I got a quote from a local SF bay installer for $3,400 (and ~5 days) and no seam was mentioned.

A full XPel Stealth Wrap for $3,400 is very low. We charge $6,500 for a full Stealth Wrap (No Seams). PPF is for Paint Preservation, Not Financial Savings.
