DMV PPF/ Tinting

[Nova _AT]

Lucid family in the DMV area, anyone did PPF/ tinting. Looking for some recommendations. This is first car I am planning to do this.

Capitol Shine, they have done a very good job for me on a couple of cars including the AGT.

Thank you very much, did you do full body on your AGT? Any tips of what to do and what not.

 

[FP1]

No tips. I did full body on the AGT. I drive it in different conditions including a couple of gravel roads and did not want to have to worry. I am not sure that PPF is that helpful or worth the cost.

I have used it on my last couple of cars and have not noticed a different from my prior or other cars without PPF.

It’s supposed to make your shine last longer and protect it from chips.

By my hesitation is that it costs as much a new paint job. And more than a wrap.

They gave me quote of 2000 for the full front. I am debating.
