A year in and I may have the doors done... so that my wife can drive the thing and park... wherever she wants. hahahahaaaa....

I'm also near Nashville. Do you recommend a certain shop for PPF work?
I have some old PPF I need removed and contemplating having some put on as well.

I'm in Buffalo, NY. Does anyone have a recommended PPF location nearby? and how much should I expect to pay for a front clip PPF?

You might try looking through previous posts at the regional forum or posting your question there. There is also a BMW Car Club chapter in your area - maybe one of their sponsors can point you in the right direction. Good luck!

Every car I buy is taken directly from the dealer to the PPF guy for a full car wrap. Perfectly preserved paint. Looks amazing.

Worth it if you are thinking of changing cars within 5 years. Otherwise, it's a waste of money because you'll have to change around the 5 year mark, and at that point you're ready to paint again.

If it's an exotic/classic car and you have the money to do it, then it's worth it.
