Default Got SunTek installed

We originally planned on doing the headlights too but the SunTek rep recommended to not apply the PPF to those areas so I ended up with the front end, 1/3 or so of the hood, the mirrors, pillars and a few inches of the roof line; came out beautifully. MCOR is where I took it here in the Lutz/Land O Lakes area in Florida. Now I'm wondering about what everyone does to keep their headlights looking bright and clear, right now mine are nearly perfect and I'd like to keep them that way so any thoughts/recommendations on technique or products to use will be appreciated. Here's one of a series of pics I took a few weeks ago of my 2014, a little bit of Photoshop manipulation applied...

Had my headlights and signal lights done in Suntek...no issues. Had it done on my 06 997.1 and after 7 years still looked brand new and that was Suntek's first PPF material.

You're done now but for future use always do full hood. Partial hood always means the rock chips will be just above the end of the PPF. IMO always do full hood and front fenders. These cars pick up lots of road crap.
Suntek is my favorite. Nice car.

I think someone makes some clear static cling covers for the headlights and like you, my installer did not recommend Suntek on the headlights (but did on the entire hood & front fenders, which I got). And if you find the source of what I am refering to please post the info here. I would look now but we are watching "MEG" in about 5 minutes so I have to set my priorities.

Nice car! As others have said the full hood is best......the “line” on the hood attracts dirt and you’ll be able to see it. The headlight covering has lots of discussion on here. Moe of Glistening Perfection covers the topic best. I did mine and glad I did. Enjoy your awesome car!

I did Suntek, full front end including headlights, hood, rockers, mirrors, A pillars, larger shark fin in front of rear wheels, and behind wheels and the top in front and behind the glass roof. Going back for doors, in a couple weeks. Love it, ymmv. Worth every penny to me but I am OCD, lol.

Do the entire hood.
