Thumbs up XPEL Ultimate Clear Bra saves Tesla Model S Door

So, all of you know that wrapping the vehicle is one of the most prudent steps one can take against rock chips, scuffs, and the occasional door dings.

We had the pleasure of doing the initial XPEL Front end install, nano coating, and window tint about a year ago, and almost 3 months ago client opted to wrap entire car as well.

Well, about a month ago the inevitable happened:

Someone opened their door into the rear passenger door and broke through the film AND dented the door. And they also were kind enough to flee the scene.





Once we peeled back the film, there was a small paint transfer, but the paint itself was perfect. A little polishing, and proper dent removal, and viola....good as new



Since this was our Advanced installation, we had to remove door handle to wrap film...we've gotten very efficient at this since we do it so often



Custom install, one large piece of film, and hand-trimmed for precise fit





All put back together, better than service center when they replaced the door handle a few months ago



Complete and CQuartz Finest applied to fresh film to protect it and match the rest of exterior





If this job had to be sent to body shop, front door and rear 1/4 panel may have needed blending. Repaint, so no more original paint. A week or two for repairs...and probably $1500-2500 depending on scope of work.

We saved the client well over 50-70% and got his car back to him same day and kept the paint original.

Excellent value IMHO.

I've been through that scenario. Very accurate.

I haven't seen this level of work anywhere in the country. It's amazing what attention to detail and the extent of Moe's work. Nobody, is taking apart pieces to this extent for such a clean finish.

Too bad his shop is half way across the country from me or I'd be there in a minute!
