Good or Bad deal?

Hey guys, I will be taking delivery of my g80 within the month and I was wondering if I am over paying for ppf.

Its 4700 for full PPF, Ceramic tints, and ceramic coating! let me know what prices and quotes you've gotten on your cars.

I think its cheap. Top place in SWFL starts full PPF at $6495. Installation is more important than price.
He did my 2023 M340i. When I brought the car in, my car was the cheapest car in the shop by far.
He was doing a Ferrari, McLaren, and Bentley at the same time.

That price is a bargain and almost seems so low I would wonder about the quality of the work and if they are an authorized shop that is giving you a well known brand of PPF that has a warranty.

Bet you're talking about auto paint guard. They always have premium cars in the shop. Last time I was there they had an STO. Pretty much why I always go there if they can keep that level of clientele. Plus they have car templates to get the best fitment.

Full car PPF? That seems too good to be true, what are they using and any reviews?

Once you roll out of the shop, poof, any money spent on PPF is gone. Kinda hurts seeing people drop that much coin to protect the paint for the next owner.
