Paid $2500, the guy was very good and a perfectionist.

Like I said it was full hood and front fenders, A piller and half roof, Full front bumper which took him 3 hours to do. Lower mirror arms, back top bumper.

Everything was wrapped inside the edges including taking out the hood vents and XPEL was wrapped inside the holes.

I am very happy about it.

Looks good... I'm 99.9% certain I'll be scheduling to have XPEL Ultimate installed on my '17... Did you notice any improvements in terms of washing the car and keeping it clean between washes? How about water spots? I understand weather plays a big factor, I'm asking more as "in general."

Washing and Waxing the car was the same as if no XPEL. I have almost 4000 miles on the car and not one single nick or scratch on it. Being a black car it would normally show all those especially on the hood. It's a truly in my opinion easier to keep clean. I use a really good MF towel and Mcguires detailer. Works great

Sweet!... Glad to hear it's working as advertised... I just scheduled to have my '17 wrapped in a few weeks... Can't wait!

Looks just like mine... Black on black, OEM mudguards, Xpel and all...

I paid $1800 to have mine done, But then later $600 to have certain parts redone because the car had to be repainted taking off the clear bra.

$1800 was Xpel on the full hood, front bumper, full fenders, front 26" inches or so of the roof, the A-pillars, the entire mirrors, the door edges, the door handle cups, and the front part of the quarter panels.

When the dealership repainted the car they took the clear off the A-pillars, quarter panels and roof and when I had it redone I threw in the top part of the rear bumper ($600).

I'd give the place I used an 8/10, Wouldn't use them again on a dark colored car but would on a white or silver car and would have them do the rocker panels too.

Which is something I highly recommend you look into, Have the quarter panels all the way down to the rocker panel/side skirts covered too... In that 60 days I had to wait for the paint to properly cure the rocker panels got blasted with chips to the point it wasn't worth putting clear bra on them, I instead got some gloss black vinyl and wrapped the areas... And I only had 1900 miles by the time I got to the point of no return.
