How much is the cost in the US for PPF (full body ?) and ceramic coating
It can vary greatly depending on the installer in your area.

I always get ppf + ceramic coat on every new car I buy and have spent as little as $2k to as much as $10k in my area (Chicago) over the years.

Most recent job was on my 992 - full body xpel ppf + ceramic coat everything including wheels and brake calipers. Cost was $8k done by a well regarded installer and it looks flawless and worth every penny. The ones that only cost $2k were just front-end only ppf packages on some daily drivers a few years ago when I didn't really care about quality as much.. My point is, it's important to do your homework and find a good installer who will do the job to your liking. I've cheaped-out with ppf installers before and basically got what I paid for.

I had Stek PPF done to the whole car at a London detailer. He said Stek already has hydrophobic properties and a gloss sheen, it doesn't need ceramic coating on top. Cost was £3k

He also installed BlackVue DR970X-2CH PLUS (front and back) for me, for £110.

As I posted pictures on another thread, he also did protective matt films on piano black bits and instrument dials, for free.

So my total cost for front PPF plus side gloss black lower trim, Modesta coating on paint, windows, wheels (removed), and interior leather protectant was 4600 UDS in Wisconsin. Here are a few more pics of the car in the shop and just outside. Note the contrast in one with the white truck in the background. Also a couple of shots of the guys shop with winter storage of some nice cars. The cream one is a Studabaker.

Looks great! I love the choice on the blue seatbelts. Definitely add some unique pop.
