Gloss meters? Jeez... just drive and enjoy the cars. The same people that say they can’t stomach bright colors are worried about how glossy their cars are?
Anyway, I did PPF my 992 front with Xpel and the reason was simple. When time to sell, I will remove the film and VIOLA! - a nice used 992 without nicks and chips in the paint...
+1…enjoyment for you during ownership, and something well-cared-for to offer the next owner…I’d pay asking price for a used car when compared to others that may have normal wear/tear

How much less does one get on trade with a few expected paint chips. You or your dealer can get these fixed dirt cheap, obviously your dealer pays even less. I would just leave the plastic on unless it is all beat up. Either way there is very minimal if any effect on resale value.

"A few expected paint chips" ??? Sorry pal, not here in New Jersey. I intend to drive my car several thousand miles a year and it's a guarantee that the front will be sand blasted without protection. I have hands-on experience with automotive paint in the past and there is no way paint chips can truly be repaired. A body panel repaint is the only option.
You guys are the best in the game! I have Full expel on my 992 that I took delivery of about a month ago, and couldnt be happier with the product. I just got my first small rock chip on the front, but the xpel did its job and my local installer said they can repair your product no problem. I can also confirm for the OP that it is virtually unnoticeable and did not dull my paint at all!
XPEL: The only thing that was not done on my was the headlights... do you recommend the product for headlights on 992? I know the 991 I was told the headlights do not hold up well having it on there. Has this changed?
Thank you for choosing XPEL! We can apply PPF to headlights, and is included in the full-front package. However some car manufacturers do not recommend it.

My wife is banking on it....she wants her sun and beach.
Well good luck man, hope you get here soon or when it is appropriate for you folks. Moved here permanently 3 years ago and have never regretted it for one minute. I wake up every morning and see a zillion palm trees Estero Bay, Gulf Keys, and a sunset to die for nearly every night.

Sounds beautiful!
We will probably go to the the Longboat Key area in September and explore the Gulf side going south. Not going to buy anything in this frothy market though. Maybe next year.

Have had some great trips through Florida, including a memorable trip down to Key West. One day soon.....
