Is $1,100 for Xpel ultimate PPF full front (full hood ,bumper, fenders and mirrors) a good deal?
Thanks for all of the info. How long do they estimate it will take to install? Mine says will be 1 day for just front and will be two days if I add the doors.
Seems good for Iowa. I'm getting numerous quotes in at $1400 for a full front in the Chicagoland area.
One thing you may want to consider is getting the doors done in addition to the full front. That's what I'm doing.
There's a thread somewhere in this site about the spray pattern on the X hitting the lower part of the doors hard. After my first wash, I can see why. That's where the bulk of the dirt was in mine.
As Kev1n said, that sounds right. I'm dropping mine off at 7AM and picking it up at the end of the next day, so it's two full working days.
I believe as much of the work goes into prepping the surface as any other part of the process.
I'm not doing a full ceramic coating on the vehicle at this time. But he is coating on top of the wrapped area.
Where are you getting it done? I'm picking up my Model x end of July and I've been looking for a place to get it done in Chicago.As Kev1n said, that sounds right. I'm dropping mine off at 7AM and picking it up at the end of the next day, so it's two full working days.

. @Brian's ReX ...your expel may seem glossier as you put Modesta on ?
Can you share some pics with the xpel and Modesta please?I would think it depends on the amount of work the shop puts into prep (i.e., paint correction).
I got only the front wrapped at first (subsequently found the sides of an X gets pummeled by road debris, so it's fully wrapped now), and it was $1800 (Seattle area).
Granted, my 'guy' does super high-end cars... so I know I'm paying a premium. However, after seeing some of the cars he's working on, and how much work they put into prep... I decided that protecting my $100K+ car was worth a few extra $$'s!
It took 2 days for the prep, then most of the 3rd day to apply/cure the Xpel film (hand cut, wrapped edges where possible).
For those that say that Xpel is the 'least glossy'... I would have to disagree. Once I saw the front done, I couldn't wait to get the rest of the X done! Maybe it appears less glossy if less prep work is done? I dunno, admittedly. But I do know that mine looks amazing! Many, many thanks to Eastside Auto Salon for the amazing work they did!!
Oh, and the front portion of the wrap consisted of: Full hood; both front fenders (quarter-panels); full bumper; side-view mirrors.
I can't stress this enough... if you are 'iffy' on doing more than just the front... AT LEAST do the FWD's! Mine got toasted so bad by nothing more than standard road debris, that I had to have them repainted before the wrap! This was at less than 2K miles! Check the forums... there are many pics of the damage that can be done to the FWD's.
Even though I was ecstatic with the Xpel... I decided on a full Modesta coating as well. Gotta say, my X looks AMAZE-BALLS now!!
