Noticed y’all didn’t remove the repeater camera’s when laying the front fender pieces. Interesting choice. I feel like it would be better for reducing seams to remove them beforehand..? That said, a very name brand PPF installer here in the PNW that did my PPF did this and broke the tabs on my driver side repeater cam….and then didn’t tell me about it. Suffice to say they didn’t get a 5-star review from me. But I digress
Sorry you went through that. For that very reason we do not remove sensors to tuck, and honestly haven't really found a good enough reason to do so. The plot we use gets very up close with the sensor. If we're doing full body color PPF where the margin of error is MUCH tighter, then yeah we would probably remove the sensor (and charge for it too).
Since Tesla can shell out $54 billion to Elmo while the stock of the company fell over the last few years this PPF should already be on the vehicle when it leaves the factory since the paint is so fragile. The more I look into thinking of buying a Tesla the more expensive they become with secondary expenses . The work you guys do does look good.
It's a shame honestly. In my experience, Tesla has some of the worst paint quality in the industry. To be fair, even the best paint on the market could still benefit from PPF, because honestly nothing protects the paint quite as good as PPF. We had a client drop by this morning where his front bumper sustained a very nasty gouge from a rock on the tollway. The PPF was thrashed, but the bumper's paint was in 100% good condition.
This exact job (full body PPF on a new Tesla Model 3) runs $5999 here in Plano, TX. It takes about a week to install, and comes backed with a ten year warranty through Ceramic Pro.
It isn't necessary for a tight install. The pattern gets right up to the edge, and for clear PPF, this is very standard. If a client wanted to get it tucked under the headlight, we'd just have to charge for it. The majority of my clients opt for what we know makes sense, thus the install with the headlights on. If we were doing something like color PPF, we'd probably remove the headlights.
Nice to see someone with a great work ethic and takes pride in his work!! Too bad you're not in my area😩

"Is it expensive? Yeah..." - would be nice to know what the price is to get this exact car done.

Does the warranty cover you if you receive a rock chick and the material damage ?
@@EduardoMaradiaga-s5w It does not cover physical damage, but if it saved your front bumper from a gnarly rock chip, I'd say it did its job!
$5500 in Texas. Wonder how much more for us California folks. I just ordered a M3P and looking into getting PPF
Why are the taillights removed but not the front lights?
