I've been debating PPF. My `06 S2000 has it over the front (hood, grill area, and fenders) and still looks as good as it did 17 yrs. ago. Close inspection shows no damage, even after driving through bug-infested Eastern NC on our way to the OBX. Everything washed off easily. My wife's car (no PPF) has been driven more miles and through similar-to-worse conditions, and it has just one minute (<0.5 mm) paint chip on the hood.
Now the FL5 and life in costal Florida. After asking around about the most reputable detailing shop, I requested an estimate. Here's what I was quoted (cut & pasted from email response).

Thanks for reaching out to us, and congratulations on your new Type R! I will include the pricing below, please let me know if you have any questions. I look forward to the opportunity to earn your business!
Full Front bundle pricing(Bumper, Hood, Fenders, Headlights and Mirrors) - $2300
Individual pricing
Hood - $750
Fenders - $600
Bumper - $800
Mirrors - $150
Headlights - $150
Full Car pricing - $9000 w/o spoiler, 9300 with spoiler.
The film we use is Xpel Ultimate plus with a 10 year warranty. We modify the Xpel templates to wrap edges for the cleanest possible install.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm not doubting the shop's excellent reputation nor the installer's skill, but wonder if the pricing is similar to other areas around the country. $9.3K for the entire FL5 would be almost one-fifth what I paid for the car!
Comments appreciated!
