Here is some more info from Obessed Garage`s update on the ppf he had done at Esoteric. It is about half way through the video or so.

BP -
You spurned my ever growing quest for wiki knowledge
For those that wrap, what`s you take on headlights.
Most are generally trimmed on the flat plane on lense
I think wrapping the edges is a slightly cleaner look BUT
- generally one uses thicker film for this area, and wrapping becomes not a option due to thickness
- even if one was to use thinner and wrap, do you guys like to wrap because of the 2 bullets below
- forward facing of vehicle. Catches alot of water, dirt, etc
- sometimes wrapped edges open up a smigen over time Stuff may accumulate
Let me hear it

Thanks, I`ll put that on the list and see if I run across any of their work (assuming I ever do get the Crown Vic out of mothballs...sheesh, I`m just not playing with the toys these days ).
People in my Jag Club rave about various shops, but to be blunt about it.. I don`t actually know anybody IRL with my standards and whenever I see anybody`s work...well...you know.

FWIW, stopped in at Rehab in Bedford last week, talked with owner/head guy for a bit.
Quite impressive, currently a small boutique location but they`re planning to move to new facility soon. Plus side is they`re gonna offer winter storage at new place, 30 spots, all cars on race ramps/flat stoppers w battery renders hooked up. Climate controlled, clean (it`ll be part of their studio) and Fall & Spring details included.
CeramicPro shop but does other coatings as well. Felt good enough about em after talking/tour that I reserved storage spot for this winter.
Also STEK ppf installers.
BudgetPlan1- Ah, sounds like they`re just right for you!
Post back if you see their work...the PPF I`d like done isn`t a challenging job by any means, but I`m still leery of trusting anybody.
Not that I`ve touched the Crown Vic in ages

Mobiledynamics,
Why do you say to skip Stek? I thought that Steks DYNOshield nano-glass top coat that is bonded to the film was state of the art. What do you consider to be the best PPF? How about window tint? On window tint I am looking for something that blocks heat not light. I understand that 3M has a new film that blocks heat but is clear.
Thanks in advance for the info
Wave Emoji - BP1 . She wrapped yet.
Kajun - between stek and suntek, suntek IMO looks better on the same panel. I can`t recall if I posted the same info in this thread. The more clearer the film is, the film is generally thinner and harder. Xpel is thicker but also can take a bit more abuse due to this. It is not as good look as Sunktek...the tradeoffs where the merits of each film does. No right or wrong I suppose. Just what your eyes approve of.
