Default What Type of PPF are you Gents Running?

I went with 3M Pro Series. Entire front end (asked for wrapped) including A pillars, roof line from windshield back to the sunroof, mirrors, door edges, rear fender bulges, and Turbo inlets. I am planning to add behind the rear fenders to catch the road grime/tar and the rear end for the same reason.

Smart to do the turbo inlets. Those can collect a lot of chips on the leading edge, and are very noticeable since they are high up on the body.Definetely do the rear wheel wells and a bit behind up to 1/3. Consider the undersides of the intercooler duct vents as well. Only you may notice, but they get pretty chewed up at track or ax. Strangely enough, my door handles also collect chips.

I remember looking at a guy’s (then relatively new) 996tt that had done hundreds of autocross runs, and the turbo and intercooler inlets were the most unusually munged paint areas.

Ive used most in my cars Xpel, but ive used Xpel, 3M and Suntek.

For me its not about what brand of PPF you use, its about who installs it.

All of them are thesame.

They are not cosmetic but functional.
