WOW! California prices are WAY higher than here in the sunny south. A bunch of folks in Atlanta got together and negotiated a discount with a local company. $2800 for a FULL wrap with Expel Ultimate. My wife's 3 was the first one they did and we are very happy with it. Especially the price! Here's a photo taken the day we picked up the car at their shop.
I was debating on XPEL protective film or 3M color, and decided on the latter because of pricing. I'm also a Porsche owner and had good results with 3M even after having the film removed. Here' s a pic of my white Model 3 that is now red, wrapped with 3M!
Well the car (even though it was new) needed some extra work... the cost if around 2K for the PPF for the full front. The crystal serum will last for 7+ years. Just reach out to Bryan @ Americanshine. They are very much perfectionists.I'm in the area and interested having this done. Can you PM your cost?

Looks great....would you mind posting a few more pics? Who did the wrap and what was the cost? Thanks~

yeah, legitimate question, i didn't think of this.How else you gonna wrap a hood?
That is what my installer did...he had asked me whether I wanted the badge....He explained that others had debadged but I was too late to reply so by the time the car was ready, he already but the badge back on.yeah, legitimate question, i didn't think of this.
how do you wrap the hood with the emblem? remove it, install PPF and stick it on top of the PPF?
Yes, it is done all the time.how do you wrap the hood with the emblem? remove it, install PPF and stick it on top of the PPF?
Sensors work just fine. No worries at all!How well do the sensors worked when wrapped or is that accounted for somehow in the process?
From what I've read, and been told by installers, for PPF they will cut out the area over the sensors. Not sure if they also do that for a wrap which is thinner.How well do the sensors worked when wrapped or is that accounted for somehow in the process?
Would you mind sharing the cost?Here is the final product with SunTek PPF (full front and rockers, lower door ) and Crystal Serum Ultra ceramic coating.
The team at American Shine Detailing in Sterling, VA did an amazing job !

Full wrap is definitely costly....but not doing the doors will save you some real dough. I was mainly worried about rock chips from driving on 880 all day long. My X has gotten small chips on the windshield, but my wrap has saved the fender and hood from debris on the freeway.
I compared against ocdetailing who uses xpel ($3600) vs premier ($4000) uses clearguard. Given that I know Premier’s work, I just sucked up the diff
Interesting, an installer I talked with in Sacramento said he never puts CQuartz over PPF, because it makes it brittle and reduces its life. Another installer I worked with in Fremont puts Nanolex Si3d HD over PPF and it looks great. I'm not sure who has it right??
now it looks even more like a Porsche..View attachment 283193
Here's a quick candid pic from today in the direct sun. T Sportline did the wrap for 4000.
