Default Another excellent job by Glistening Perfection

As recommended by many here, I took my new 2019 Carrera GTS to Moe at Glistening Perfection to get it wrapped. I've never done PPF on any of my cars before so I wanted to keep the job to a minimum but still get reasonable protection. Moe gave me the pros and cons on each of the different films and his thoughts on what the best bang for the buck as to protection was. I ended up doing the whole front - bumper, hood, headlights, fenders and mirrors - with Xpel Ultra. The work is outstanding, no visible lines or edges, can't tell the film from the paint, etc. I was also very impressed with the cleanliness of Moe's shop and how efficient his operation is. He also provided me with a loan car while mine was being worked on so it made the whole process very easy.
Highly recommended especially if your within 100 miles if his Costa Mesa location.

It was a pleasure to serve you and thank you for the opportunity.

Enjoy your new 911 now that she's protected

It's nice to see parts pulled for ppf, worth the extra cost

excellent question...it’s up to client choice...a-pillars DO take a little beating, and you’re being prudent by applying film there 👌

for us, this is the most popular installation:

For most that follow us, we don’t give too many discounts or “deals”. However, it seems once a year, we do a group buy if the circumstances are right. Please visit here if you’re interested:

What a great job! My car was already done when I bought it and the film was not wrapped around the corners (pre-cut I am sure) and I have a few nicks in the paint in those very slight areas that are not wrapped as well as in the window frame that they had not done. Lesson learned. I am sure the cost of custom wrapping as shown in the pictures costs a lot more (using same Xpel), but in the long run will pay off with much better protection. The car looks amazing!

I had mine done and recommend them to include the painted header above the windshield since I had a car in the past that got a big chip up there...I would have preferred if it hit the windshield!

Yah I want to get the A pillar done. If you look straight on that would be the only piece not protected. But than again its so high so you would need to have a really high rock to hit it.
