PPF shop for Dallas

Hello,

Any one from Dallas who would recommend PPF shop for BMW ?

Also if we put PPF only to Partial Hood, Partial Fenders, Full Front Bumper, Side Mirrors and Headlights is there any noticeable difference that other parts of the vehicle paint looks faded ?

thank you.

I am using Tactical Fleet in Dallas to do full XPEL ppf, window tinting and ceramic coating. They did a really good job on my wife's X5 so I decided to use them again for my G87. I hope to get my car back this weekend (they were really busy when I dropped off my car -- drove it straight from dealership to the shop) and will post pictures once I get it back.

DFW Clear Bra @ clearcoatfilm.com. They’ve done all of our vehicles and couldn’t be happier.

Clear film doesn’t change the appearance of the paint at all.

Only for frontal PPF for X5 they said $2800 which seems to be too high

I'm dropping my G42 off at Fortune Wraps in Plano tomorrow for full body PPF and ceramic tint. Will let you know how it turns out.

Full body PPF + Ceramic window tint to all windows, the estimate was around $6500. You also get a 2 year ceramic coating to all panels if you do a full body PPF there. I had some extra stuff done so my total is slightly more.

If you only do PPF to the front, estimate is ~$2700. Ceramic tint only is ~$875.

That is a really good price. How is the quality of their work?

Supposed to get my car back some time this week so I'll let you know. But I visited their shop when I was shopping around and thought they did a really good job from what I was seeing. You can see their work on their instagram or youtube channel.

Stopped by their supposedly open Carrollton location the other day, and it was dead & locked up tight. Not sure if they're still open.

Very happy with the results. The guys at Fortune Wraps are great at what they do and easy to work with. They were able to remedy an issue with the ppf on the inside of the grille that popped up a few weeks after I took the car home. Would work with them again in the future and would recommend that you at least give them a call or visit them.
