Default PPF Preferred Community Installers Thread

Installer Name: Precision Shield

Recommendation: Highly recommend, fast and competitively priced!

Address: Greensboro, NC

Website: http://www.xpel.com/clearbra_install...cision_Shield/

Film Used: Xpel,

Coverage: Full front, doors, full rear quarter panels.

Detail / Paint Correction: none - he only does film

Comments: Great shop and quick turnaround. Does PPF but not paint correction. He covered 75% of my car in 6 hours. Found him when I went to the dealer to look at a car for an out of town Rennlister and got to see the quality of a car he had already done. Kevin is a one man operation so can be hard to get ahold of at times since he is typically working on someone's car. My car was done by this shop at Foreign Cars Italia Garage - Note that the Charlotte FCI uses a different installer that does terrible work.

+1 on UCC.

Rick is a really nice guy and did a great job (Xpel/Opti) on my S4 last year. I was literally there a couple hours ago so he could look at the 911. He can't schedule new cars for about a month, but worth the wait

He recently moved:
22 Dale St (Rear Building)
Andover, MA 01810

Super thread! There are a lot of stickies at the top already, but this would be another worth considering to add. Too bad no VA listings above, but I did receive a tip today thanks to a new forum friend.
