Thanks, helpful to know. Glad to hear there are at least two good installers in the area

Agreed that it does seem like a large premium for that small extra part. Given it is tucked behind the wheel it doesn't seem like a super high risk area.

That said, I'm glad about doing full front quarter panel because: (1) the panel is fully wrapped so you do not see the edge of the film, and (2) I plan to do some light tracking so want as much coverage around the wheels as possible. Had to keep telling myself it was still a drop in the bucket on a $115K car.

Ultimately I like having the peace of mind of the full 100% frontal wrap, and I plan on keeping the car for a while so it felt worth the investment. The whole process in general feels unnecessarily expensive but I guess it's all part of the game...

after reading your review I ended up going with Q for a paint correction and 4 layers of Ceramic Pro. They did a fantastic job. Highly recommended.

Agree that 911 looks great.

I ended up having my Spyder done at Unique Car Care which has now moved to Middleton. Rick did a great job and am very pleased.
It sounds like we have multiple good shops now in the area.
Just wish the weather would improve so I can drive more.

I am in Salem, NH if anyone is looking for a detail. I don't do PPF but I do paint correction and ceramic coat (I use Feynlab Lite and Gtechniq CSL personally). Like mfonseca, I am home garage based. Cheers to warmer weather!

I agree, Unique Car Care! Rick recently (2 weeks ago) paint corrected and PPFed the front end back to the mirrors on my 2020 Cayenne Turbo then Ceramic coated the whole SUV. He also detailed and ceramic coated my 911 TT and UV protected the interior. The 911TT was entirely PPFed by Rick 5 years ago.

I would not trust my cars to anyone else. He and his crew are the best!
