How much are they charging you for it?

I don't have the total yet. I added a few things last minute. My installer isn't typically the cheapest, but he's the best when it comes to detail and craftsmanship. I've learned over the years that you don't skimp on PPF installers. Budget prices are typically given for a reason. "You get what you pay". Always asked to see examples of work. I've had previous installers cut the paint with razors, high abrasion areas exposed, bubbles, lifting edges, stretch marks, relief seams, debris caught under the film. It's a skill that not everyone has. My installer is the preferred local new Ferrari's PPF installer. He also use to work at a body shop, so he knows how everything is put together.

Congrats! Whilst waiting for delivery, I’ve also committed to a full car PPF (Xpel Ultimate as well!)… Totally agree on your point on workmanship being the differentiating factor.

Will be the first vehicle I’ve owned to have PPF (usually just ceramic coat) but can’t wait for delivery - my installer has mentioned they’ll take ~4 days to complete - I tell you that’ll be an agonising wait (tot to mention stress on removing trim on a brand new vehicle just to do the PPF!)

Please let us know how yours turns out! At least I’ll have some base reference pictures as well.

Do I understand correctly that you’re also applying to the matte/plastic lower trims and wheel arches?

I want to vinyl wrap my Macan 4 (expected in October), but many people tell that the non-painted (plastic) areas cannot be wrapped

No, you can't apply PPF to the textured plastic trim on the Macan 4.

The new Xpel product has ceramic built into it now which is an improvement over their products from the past

Would have loved to get my hands on the Xpel Fusion PPF - but isn’t available in my market (Malaysia) - only have the Ultimate Plus range available - so probably will have to do a ceramic coat on top of that (Xpel Fusion or other).
