992 front end Paint protection film overview with STEK DynoShield
We have had quite a few questions regarding what to expect in a full front end PPF job from us. This is a walkaround overview of a recently completed 992 911 Carrera S we did. feel free to ask any questions you may have and we will do our best to answer everyone.
Level 1 (Front end) PPF
STEK DynoShield Film: We chose STEK films for their superior optical clarity compared to other films on the market. Same 8mm thickness as the other everything else with a permanent hydrophobic self healing top coat. we don't use plotted kits. we bulk everything as we want the least amount of edges as possible.
We removed the headlights and corner lights for our level 1 installations. Level 3 (whole car) sees the front and rear bumper plastic trims removed as well.
10yr warranty on the film, Lifetime on the install
Enjoy!

Nice Job GW Team!
I can personally vouch for these guys. I had them wrap my entire 991.1TT and what was most impressive was how neatly tucked the edges were - the PPF was essentially a custom tailored suit for the car. Got my wheels/calipers/RS side skirts ceramic coated as well which made it a breeze to clean. My foam cannon is almost useless because the suds just fall off the hydrophobic coating. Hell, the numbers on my car had to be re-taped multiple times at the last few PCA events. These guys are professional and experienced.
If anyone is on the fence or considering them, PM me and I'm happy so share more details.

Not only is it not worth it but it won't even stick to the film. We have tried various different manufactures of coatings for this as we still have some clients that want as much protection as they can get. Our testing has concluded there is no coating on the market that won't just bead up and run off STEK DynoShield. Now eventually if the top coat ever actually wears off we will coat it but at this point im convinced the top coat will last as long as the film will. We have to aggressively polish the film in areas that will see Vinyl stickers just to get the vinyl to adhere, even then it doesn't stay as long as it would directly to paint.

If an installer tells you otherwise they are either A.Stupid B.taking your money when they know it wont work.

The actual film falls in line pricing wise with other top tear films from other manufactures. because of the install level when working with it I would expect (and i know we charge) a little more for installation of it. I have it on my personal car, we have it on the shop GT4 and shop 488 Pista as well.
