Carmine red GT4 Xpel Ultimate Install

Xpel installation thread
Had mine installed last week...dropped the car off Monday, picked it up Saturday...my installers probably spent 3 solid days on the car.
1. full front (front bumper, front fenders, mirrors, door handles, headlights (yes, I know))
2. rocker panels, intake, rear splash...every mm^2 of the rockers were covered...they were actually removed from the car...full custom.
3. wing - edges, top, partial bottom - custom
4. A-pillars - custom - not the print.

See: https://www.facebook.com/Metropolita...-232149321442/ - Carmine Red.





Retained the factor wrap and put Xpel tracwrap on the car to temporarily protect during the drive to the detailer.





Full custom A.





Full custom A.





Bumper used the template with tweaks.





Fender was completely custom from bulk.





Bumper...





Hood...





Completely removed the rockers with a full custom wrap...except for the part that surrounds the GT4 - that was printed.





Rocker..





Custom work on the spoiler.





Wrap the edges...in the first 200 miles, I already had a nasty rock chip on the spoiler...also found solvent pops, which required wet sanding.








All finished...the color is totally wrong in the sunlight - looks like guards red in the sun.
