PPF Cost?

[jayely1]

Really? The hood along with the bumper are essentially the Only things that need to be covered. Doors etc seem like a waste of time in my book unless your driving the car sideways.

It helps with door dings/scratches as well.. Minor ones i'm sure.

Mine is pretty messed up around the handle... I couldn’t imagine what it might look like for someone that has rings or zippers on the cuffs of a jacket or something...

A local shop will do $800+tax and would cover the full front bumper, partial hood & fenders, and the side mirrors.
I asked for the full hood and it went from $800 to $1,500.. Seems like a HUGE jump just to do the rest of the hood.

What has everyone else paid and for how much coverage?

I paid $1800 after discount for the full front coverage.

I’m in central jersey as well. Your price sounds reasonable...could you share the name of the place you used? Thanks a lot!

Sorry for the late reply.
SignatureDetailing in Hillsborough
$1700 for Full Hood, Full Fenders, Bumper, Lights (including fogs), side mirrors and center console (vinyl wrap or film) - Suntek Ultra 10yr Warranty

Leeberbs in Hillsborough
$1750 for the same as above except center console in film (no vinyl wrap) - Xpel Ultimate Plus..this is the newest 10mm product. They also do tinting.

Both get 5* and the they actually worked together until leeberbs started his own place. I decided to go with SignatureDetailing due to the purely clear and shine with Suntek Ultra and the hydrophobic properties...it’s probably all BS but whatever. Also he’s done at least over 50 Teslas.

Thanks so much! I’ll reach out to them

Go elsewhere, why would someone offer 1/2 hood. Total price I paid was 1600.00 full front, hood, bumper, front side fenders, head lights, fog lights and mirrors.

Forgot to mention door handles too.

I just paid $500 for full bumper using Xpel Ultimate. Guy even offered mobile service to my home since I had a bunch of WFH meetings. Nice job and I am satisfied with the quality and how it turned out. Anyone in SF Bay Area that wants a name and number for this guy, just hit me up.

 

[jayely1]

Too bad there's only like 2 places that do it locally here

 

[jayely1]

Also, how long did it take to do it?? The shop said 3 days to do the front end... Seems like a LONG time!

Three days sounds about right, and this is a job you don’t need rushed. Also if you go look in the back, there’s about 5 or 6 other cars being done at the same time.

I was quoted $5500 for full stealth in Cleveland. I was hoping to get a couple quotes, but so far I have only one shop that has gotten back to me.

That’s a good price

I'm doing a full stealth Xpel wrap plus ceramic coating for $7k on Long Island, NY for my new Model Y Performance. They also do a paint correction prior to applying the wrap. Comes with a 10-year warranty.

I'm on Long Island as well. Did you receive a front-only quote? Which shop did you pick?

The prices out there are rather odd. Did the entire front myself not fun but really not all that crazy hard. Just odd that they would consider the hood a higher value on this car. Anyone could do the hood on this car virtually with their eyes closed? It’s almost a flat surface compared to other cars I have done which are way more contoured with edges. The hood took me no more then 15 minutes with edge folding in my garage. Just need to take your time and follow the basic instructions.

I did the full front for $367. I can't believe people spend so much. The bumper was difficult but you are right the hood is easy.

People spend more for PPF then if would cost to replace the hood or bumper painted from tesla.

You got both fenders in full, bumper, hood mirrors for $367?!? How and where??

For those in the bay area looking for PPF and/or ceramic work, I highly recommend MUM Sports in Fremont (https://www.yelp.com/biz/mum-sports-fremont-2). They're straight pros and Sayed (shop manager) makes sure all your concerns are addressed the entire time.

I got a full frontal xpel ultimate PPF for $1485 (XPEL | Paint Protection Film | Clear Bra | ULTIMATE PLUS | STEALTH | TRACWRAP | ARMOR) -- includes a 10% first time customer discount by referral. I called around a ton of shops in the bay area (6+) that have at least a 4.5 yelp review rating and MUM was the cheapest. Happy to share any more detail or up close shots.

I just had full front wrapped in WI and paid $1400 for Xpel Ultimate. Takes quite a bit of manual work hence the price.
I had to do paint prep and remove the logo, fender caps, and blinkers myself, but the results are great and PPF mostly wrapped where possible.

I bought it online. The bumper is difficult. The hood is easy. If you want to try buy the hood it's around $190 online for full hood.

And if anyone is wondering which ppf brands hold up best to help determine which ones are worth the price - I found a youtuber torture testing the different ppf films - I’ve been watching his videos while I wait on delivery before deciding on which film to go with - see if his channel helps:

Full wraps under 7k is an amazing deal, but make sure you have a quality installer. If your near Dayton Ohio or Cincinnati, I would recommend ClearBraOhio. The owner Kieth is also on the advisory board with Suntek. He did a full Stealth wrap on my Y.
