Guys,

Here is the final results. I am very pleased and in fact the shop exceeded my expectations. I was told no washing for 2 weeks and that it needs to cure. In fact the color will get even more intense over the next few weeks.

Here is what I got done;

1. Xpel - Full Front covered including the hood extractor & front Splitter.
2. Xpel - Headlights, side fogs lamps + front black plastic area (left/right) near fog lamps (custom piece).
3. Xpel - Side splitter and 2 inches above all the way along the side
4. Rear quarter (left/right).
5. Side mirrors + Underneath door handle + front windshield side pillars.

6. Xpel Tint - 20% all windows

7. Ceramic Pro (entire car +had the wheels coated + Ceramic Rain (Windshield)

Needless to say I went with the Platinum package and spared no expense. For anyone still on the fence about Xpel or Ceramic Pro I cant reassure you and tell you it's worth it. I must admit I was skeptical about the Ceramic Pro at first BUT very glad I decided to include it.

Yes sir...Hamza is the man for sure. Pretty sure you have the red 1LE as I saw it on the Get Detailed Facebook web page.

Thanks...as for cost my advice is this. You need to trust/like the owner of the shop your dealing with. Second, do your homework and see if you can find reviews or do they have a social media presence. Thirdly, don't let price influence your decision. What I mean is sometimes it's better to pay the premium. I didn't choose the lowest quote. Fourthly, what type of cars do they deal with? Are they high end? The shop i ended up with deals with Corvettes, Tesla's, Mercedes, BMW's, Lexus just to name a few.

As for the difference between quartz and Ceramic pro I ended up going with ceramic because of the warranty, reviews overall on-line and my own research. I think you can't go wrong with either but half the battle is the installer and if the product is applied correctly. That's what you should be most concerned about.

You get what you pay for and if you get 3 quotes you will see for the services you want that the range can be anywhere from+\- $200-$500.

Hope this helps...

Looking good Jeff! I think I'm going to have to check these guys out. My paint could use a refresh.

We're gonna have to meet up for coffee soon!

A rather lengthy beat around the bush no response for a rough estimate...
