Maryland/Va Protective Film Installers

Things change so fast in the automotive world I thought I'd ask who or where is the "go to" shop for protective film installs in MD/Va/DC?

This installer is new to me. : http://www.proshieldinc.com/contactus.html

Honestly? I'm thinking about ordering the pre-cut kits and going for it.

I would maybe attempt the rear fender quarter panel rock guard film but not the front of the vehicle,hood,fenders,headlights,bumper,mirrors,doo r locks,etc...Do they not offer a warranty?Good luck though in your adventures.

I would call (Jack at) EuroPros. well known bodyshop among the local Porsche crowd and he has installers/contractors for everything, including clear bra work. i just had mine repaired there and got full front xpel installed afterwards. am very happy.

Very kind of you sir. I will give him a shout. Do you mind telling me what the P car general consensus is for installing full front clip vs 1/2 hood, fenders, bumper?

Go for full front (bumper, fenders, hood, side mirrors). You won't regret it.

+1 on Expel ultimate film.

yeah, go full frontal.

the price difference is not exactly negligible but it's worth it IMO. no visible lines, no uncovered areas to take the "murphy's law" rock hits*.

(* - because you just KNOW that's where they will hit, right? it's practically karma.)

Did you find a good protection film installer in DC metro area? I'm thinking of installing full front.

Can any one recommend good XPEL installer in NoVA/DC metro area?

Thanks,

I like to check in Chantilly/Herndon/Tysons area first and see any good protective film installers there.


Thx Sullic.
