cool.
Yes, you must be confusing us with another company. We have been installing ppf longer than most (since 1997) and a sponsor on rennlist since 2005. All of our installations are 100% custom - no precuts ever touch any of our clients' vehicles. Additionally, we carry the most premium film on the market - ClearGuard Alpha.
Here is a video of what our GT3 custom installation would look like:

only they touch my cars.
others are pretty good, but these are the best.

+1 Recommendation for Premier in Fremont. The quality of their workmanship, attention to detail, and customer service are simply the best.

I've had cars done at Premier also. Good work. There's going to be a few that have skillful installers, but what you want to look for are ones that have good support after because NO wrap is perfect...On some pieces you'll see bubbling or lifting and it's how a shop handles this after is what's important. Even when Premier did my car, there was lifting around the edges of my side mirror (this was for an ISF I had done in 2008) and so they redid it again.I would say equivalent great shop in Socal is Protective Film Solution. Great installers, but even better customer service.

Taking delivery of my 2018 GT3 this week. No PPF on it during first 7k miles of its life. Fingers crossed. Any new headlines in Bay Area PPF shops beyond what's been summarized here the past few years? Can someone hazard a guess as to what partial PPF would cost me, and what full PPF would cost me? Not over-the-top perfection, as I'm not OCD, but solid coverage with good craftsmanship. Agree it's a consumable. Car's paint will likely need some work before the PPF goes down, is my guess. Car is currently decal-free. I am gathering from research here that most owners put decals over PPF, not under?

I had a great experience having my GT3 PPF at Unique Auto Films in San Jose, CA.. They did a great job and the price was very reasonable.. Xpel full PPF with ceramic coating.. The service was great and picked up on Saturday..

I would speak with Joe at OCDetailing www.bayareadetails.com They have a lot of Porsche experience and perform really high quality installations.

For the guys who track their cars do you get an extra layer of PPF put on the "shark fin" area in front of the rear wheels?
