6SpeedOnline - Porsche Forum and Luxury Car Resource - GP Automotive Renewal Service: Phase3/Nano/Clear Film R+R

The focus of this thread is to shed some more light into our Clear Film Protection installation. As most of you that are familiar with us at GP, we pretty much do thing in a manner that respects and appreciates the cars we work on. In short, it's all about the car and what she needs. This 997.2 GTS came to us from a client in Las Vegas and he wasn't happy with the previous install. We simply did one of our Phase 3 service, applied a nano coating to exterior, and protected the hood, fenders, bumper, headlights, mirrors, and rear stone guards with XPEL Ultimate. So sit back, have a drink, and enjoy. We had a lot of fun working on this GTS, I hope you enjoy seeing the progress and completion.

Notice the paint once the old clear film was removed. One very unique aspect of ALL our clear film installs is we correct the paint and remove any imperfections such as swirls and scratches. Even though it's something you'll never notice under the film, it's something we know exists, and that's simply not acceptable to our standards

When we were disassembling the car to prep for polishing, one rather alarming discovery was this headlight was not properly re-installed. It simply pulled right up. If this headlight were to come off while driving, well, let's just say you'll have a very expensive and bad day
