Default Wraps and Protective Film Hand in Hand on GT3s

This is an intro to Protective Film Solutions. We might be new to RENNLIST, but we are not new to Porsches. If you are in any Southern California car circles, you've probably heard of us at one point or another.

Like all other high-end cars and super cars, Porsches are perfect candidates for vehicle wraps. Be it because you want a different color, a livery, printed commercial design or a full body clear bra to protect your original paint.



The reason wraps and Porsche go so well is because you can do it without affecting the car’s value — as it’s completely reversible. That’s when talking about color change and livery car wraps. Similarly, doing a clear bra or full body clear bra on a Porsche is a no-brainer. The first time the clear bra protects your paint from a big scratch or pebbles pelting your bra, it will pay for itself.

Here's a video from when we installed Xpel Ultimate on Jay Leno's McLaren P1:



At Protective Film Solutions we specialize in wrapping and protecting high end vehicles. Our list of customer cars range from Porsche, to Ferrari, to Lamborghini to Pagani and Bugatti. In fact, our list of completed projects has surpassed 28,000 cars between our current 3 locations.

Thanks for the good words! This was the bit we gathered from recent projects. Lots more before that and lots more to come.

PS... Yes, the green Martini car is one of my favorites.

I have to throw a vouch out to Ryan's team in Orange County location. They wrapped my sapphire blue GT3 and my only regret was that I didn't get the whole car wrapped. I got nervous about the wrap impacting my enjoyment of the paint and they did a great job that I barely notice it.

On top of that, when I had a flat tire that damaged my rear quarter panel (something punctured the tire, then ratcheted around the outer wheel well), the thin slip of Xpel saved my rear bumper from needing to be resprayed. Hopefully you guys will help me out next year when I'm ready to finish the full wrap I should have done to begin with.

Kevin

Minor paint work needed to be done on the quarter panel, but the Xpel film took a beating to save the rear bumper!

I can't remember all the cars I've had done here in Scottsdale. Clear bra, window tint - all good. I even had them tint some huge windows at the house. AZ sun is brutal!

Robbie is top notch!

We are PFS's largest Performance Tuning Shop Partner in the country and that's because they do the best work, have the best service and are lead by Ryan Tounsley, the best in the business at what he does!

All my personal cars, race cars and GMG cars are protected or wrapped by PFS!!

They do a lot of work in our shop since we are literally across the street from one another, which makes GMG even more of a one stop shop.

It's great to have partners in the industry like PFS.




Cheers,

Who had used the Scottsdale location?

Are these patterns or custom edge wrap jobs?

Any GT3 or RS project pics?

James-GMG - Thank you for such kind words! So true, GMG has been a huge part of our growth and oh yeah, they're a pretty badass shop - it's crazy the work we see come out of there and to be associated with them is truly an honor - thanks to everyone at GMG - James, Scotty, Allen...and the rest of the crazies in the back!

We have used Protective Film on one, or two, or a hundred cars so far. They do incredible work on both our street and race cars!
