I did mine over here: Tritek Window Tinting & Paint Protection Film · 2518 W Kingsley Rd # 110, Garland, TX 75041
All windows including the windshield with XPEL XR Plus and PPF for the front bumper. The total was $1600 if I remember correctly.

PPF only for front bumper or full front?

PPF only for front bumper or full front?

Only bumper. I don't see a reason for doing a full front.
It's much more important to not forget put PPF on the rear doors/fenders. Even more important than bumper.
But I did it by myself ordering tesla PPF kit: Model Y Paint Protection Film (tesla.com)
Very easy to install.

Oh were you able to do it without bubbles or issues? Also do we need two kits for all four doors?

No bubbles. It's very easy to work with a fairly flat surface and a small piece of PPF. Also, this kit is ONLY for the rear doors/fenders. So you need only one kit.

I'm looking at TriTek and one other place also. What color is your MY, and do you know what prepping was done (e.g., multistep paint correction) to the front bumper before the PPF was put on?

not needed. they don't get damage from the rock chips. Only rear doors, because that area of the car body is wider and heavily sanded with dirt, rock chips from the front wheels. After just one road trip to Colorado, I feel like a PPF on the doors is not smooth anymore and have a lot of "bites" from the dirt.

I have white. My car was new so I didn't need any paint correction.

Xquisite Detail, Keller 469-669-0378. Ask for Chase. They did my window tint, ceramic coating. Flawless work. Shop is always crowded with high-end autos.

Scott Solar Auto Spa, Arlington, TX 682 990 3144. Scott's has done 100s of Teslas, gets great reviews. You get what you pay for.

That makes sense; standard prep practice for the full front PPF package (front bumper, full hood, fenders, and mirror covers) would be to wash, clay bar, and alcohol bathe the paint to decontaminate before the PPF gets put on.
The multistep and paint correction process is for the ceramic coating package for all paint, including the full front.

Have you inspected it with a proper light?

New cars have often need correction and decontamination.

 

[freed0m]

Does anyone with experience or input on the shop XPEL Dallas? (XPEL Dallas | Paint Protection Film, Window Tint and Ceramic Coating). Their price seems reasonable when compared to a few other shops in the DFW area.

I didn't. It visually looks perfect, so that's more than enough for me.
It's just a car )))
