I went with matte. My kids didn't like looking at themselves. Surprising considering three are teenaged girls. 
Same here, we love the way it turned out. The glossy XPel retains the original look and should hold up well to plenty abuse. It cost $250 per seat back.

@BrianD hmm..I will PM the cost to you but it not even close to $250 per seat. That's a very high price, sorry @Saxena I think you could have gotten a much much better deal than that.. *cough* *cough* half...
Will share pictures tomorrow after I clean the seats, I am letting them "cure" and dry for a day.

I blame it on the following effect from glossy seatbacks:-I went with matte. My kids didn't like looking at themselves. Surprising considering three are teenaged girls.
My seatbacks were $250 for for all 5 (7 seat config) and the two third row headrests. I used the same person who did my S and have referred business to him, so maybe I got below market. I don't know, but love the look.

Trifecta: Solar and both cars are EVs
Ours were just done in XPEL clear (glossy). Because of the black on black interior, we decided to go with the contrasting glossy look. Picking up the car tomorrow. Not having them protected was making me nervous.
@BrianD - Have you picked up your MX 75D in Dallas? If yes, would you please share pictures? Thanks.

I did
I only noted one issue which was actually a scratch in the back of the drivers seat oddly enough (considering our thread here). They are going to have to replace it. Everything else looked great! Will post pics once I get home.My bad. My seatbacks were about $630 for the five seats and third row head rests. Totally worth it. It's been three months and my memory sucks.
Gotta protect the seatbacks with something. The scratch and smudge easily. Also, the plastic is a magnet for dust and crumbs. Film is not.

@BrianD- THANKS for sharing the pictures of your MX 75D. My configs are exactly like yours, except I added 22" onyx black wheels. I never liked gray color automobile, but I think i like it now, especially, on MX with UW interior. Enjoy your new toy.
I helped my daughter move and loaded a few items in my Model X and ended up with a deep scratch on one of the second row seat backs. I am going to cover them with XPEL to prevent further damage. Before I do that, however, is there a recommended product to buff out the scratch before I have the XPEL applied?

That's a good idea. I am not sure a detailer will take responsibility for that high gloss surface.
