PPF/Detail - New Car (GT3) - who to use?

[cervezaman]

I would say that as minimum you should get front end and rear arches done. My 992’s arches have taken a real hammering - I’ve got 2 layers of ppf in that area and I can feel lots of damage to the top layer already. That’s after 2,500 miles. My care was was done by Topaz and I was up sold full car ppf instead of just the front end. So glad I did.

Would be interested in hearing details of the windscreen ppf!

I have a 5 year old 991.1 GT3 and it’s now on 7k miles it’s not done many track days and has had one detail and slight correction apart from that it gets carefully washed by me.

I gave it a very thorough wash last weekend and the only mark I can see anywhere was two tiny stone chips on the bonnet. They are tiny. I’m the only one that would ever see them, if I didn’t carefully hand wash I’d never know...

Sorry I just don’t get this obsession with Plastic wrapping.... I took it off my GTS as it looked awful. I have yet to see a ppf’d car that looks better after the wrap than before

Well here it is, not a join or wrinkle in sight, people have stood and touched it and said that’s not got PPF

MY 991.2 GT3 Would chip by just looking at it

It’s a wrap not a cut to pattern

Now let’s choose a picture

I agree, if you choose a good installer they can make the PPF look very invisible. This is why research before taking your car to any place prior to PPF is so important.

At the very least yes. We have just had a 991.2 GT3 come in recently for a top up detail, he also didn't go for the full car and instead opted for front end, sills and extended stone guards. The car is hammered with chips above the stone guards after approximately 10k miles. My own RS has been PPF'd all over, sills, stone guards and parts of the rear bumper are triple line layered and finally finished with a coating for a further reduced friction surface. The windscreen has been filmed too which is really good.

I’d be interested in the windscreen film also. Topaz weren’t when I asked them about it.

We know you can get a bit OCD at times :-D
