I did the expel, paint correction and ceramic coating. I found a bad rock ding/chip on my front fender the 1st month I owned the car. I was super careful about following distance and it still happened! I expelled my entire front end from the leading edge of the roof forward, A pillars, fenders, entire hood, mirrors, front bumper, head lights, down the rocker panels and behind the wheels. Not cheap, but worth it for piece of mind. As far as ceramic coating goes, I love it, touch less car wash and it looks almost new, no waxing required. I’m anal and this has saved my sanity lol. O, I also got pine pitch on the car the 1st month I owned it and it etched my paint after less then 1 day.

At least all the guys with paint correction will have some really nice looking grilles that we can admire in our rear view mirror...

The thread detoured majorly. I’ll admit I helped the detour a tiny bit.

Ceramic coating, paint correction. It is just a bunch of wasted money. It does not increase the value of the car. It really does not make it look better. Just wash it yourself and save your money.

I trade mine before the paint needs correcting. Get the exhaust and run with the cool people. Lol

After 15 months ... I am very happy I chose to drop the coin on the PPF & coatings. The Gtechniq crystal serum black and Gtechniq EXO are holding up and performing brilliantly. With the top down and NPP in track mode, it's loud enough for me

It's funny you say that as I was just thinking last night that I'm glad I opted for the exhaust and bottle of dr.colorchips.

The exhaust sounds awesome (I really needed a bit more than stock) and I have used the dr.colorchips several times now, primarily on the rear rocker panel and it's a perfect and seamless paint match. With the little bottle they give you, I will be able to fix 1,000 chips. Regards
