XPEL install North Austin
My F80 will be arriving soon. Does anyone have any recommendations for XPEL install in North Austin?
Thanks! |

Sun Tint did my M4 - both window tint and clear protection. They did a fantastic job. Was about $1200 total. They do not use XPEL, but I am very pleased with it. Has been over a year and a half - has held up perfectly.

He said North Austin. Chris is at XPEL in San Antonio. That is a good recommendation, but is not North Austin.

No, we have an installation center in Austin, the installers name is Chris Evenson. In San Antonio, the sales manager for SA is Chris White (Chris is a popular name at XPEL)
We have a few guys in austin, but we also have an XPEL Corporate location...all can be found here: XPEL AUSTIN |

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for the advice.
I dropped my car off with the XPEL Austin this morning. I ended up getting the whole car done. |

Please don't get the pitchforks and torches, but what exactly does XPEL do for our cars? I was planning n just getting the front wrapped to protect against rocks and stuff.

I would say that three separate people who had elected to have only the front half the hood done told me that they wish they would have done the whole hood. I was originally going to do only the front + full hood + side view mirrors. Then I started thinking how much it would suck if the CF roof got scratched. I also was wondering if the flared fenders in the rear would be an issue on the M3 and eventually decided to just do the whole car. Just doing the front probably would have been a better decision logically. |

The front is all I had done.

Picked my car up today, it looks great and I am happy to have it back.
There was an amazing Individual Java Green F80 there as well. I have never been a fan of that color in pictures but in-person it is pretty amazing. |

Most installers will wash, clay, and wipe down vehicles before clear bra's are applied, so it has a proper surface to adhere to. |
