Great PPF Work - DFW Area-

Hey folks- My OEM PPF looked like 'French Crackle" pottery... Really bad. One sections was missing. Tried to fid a place in Dallas I trusted. Took me weeks. I finally found Forecefield Pain Shield/Kevin Williams. Have a nice air-conditioned shop, perfect lift and takes his time (you can't rush genius, right?. Matched the OEM pieces nicely. Looks SO much better. It's also much thinner than the OEM PPF, so you really don't notice it. Very pleased.

New PPF....passanger side

New PPF...drivers side

Old PPF, drivers side, bottom section missing..

Old PPF, bright lighting, passenger side.

Old PPF, passenger side, dim lighting.

I had the same pieces replaced on my Rapide. All of the OEM pieces were replaced. The installer did a longer strip on the rocker panel than OEM. Not crazy long or anything. He was also doing a complete PPF on a new black DBX. Looked fantastic.

I also did a strip on the top edge of the rear bumper where it meets the hatch. Prevents scratches from the battery tender cord, and fingers from opening the hatch.
