Stealth PPF questions

I am considering getting stealth PPF wrap on my M4 and I have a few questions:

I am getting front CF splitters, lip, and rear spoiler, do I need to install these first before applying the film or can I install the splitter and spoiler directly on top of the film with 3M tape.

For those who have done a stealth wrap on their cars, did you also wrap the carbon roof? I am not sure how a matte CF roof would look like.

Lastly, how much did you guys pay for a full PPF wrap on your cars? The quotes I've been getting have been around 5-7k for a full wrap

If you want to have the CF pieces protected with PPF, the answer would be either or. More coverage if you wrap it before you install it.

My full wrap in Llumar Plat (10 year film), was $3700 for the entire car.

Just bear in mind if you wrap first then apply
CF part it will lift if the wrap is removed.

If you want to sell the parts later then I guess it's ok.

If they are staying on the car - I would fit them first with Beta link for the CF spoiler - and wrap over the top.

My coverage is excellent with this. You can't see the wrap at all.

I paid 5K Australian for a full PPF wrap and ceramic coat over the top.

I'd strongly suggest getting a paint film ceramic coat over the film. It adds UV protection (especially important for that carbon roof in harsh climates) and all it needs is a hose down and dry to clean. Ceramic coat needs to be applied every year or two.
