I decided to use the one in Sevilla, he is including covering the carbon buckets and inside carbon.
I've been in the US for the past 13 years, but I'm from San Sebastian and lived mostly in Barcelona

I'm sure for that price you are getting the royal treatment. The biggest expense in ppf is labor, and in Spain labor is cheap

For the price of full PPF, you can buy a plotter and a 20ft x 72in roll of material and do it yourself.

I would put serious cash money down that 99 people out of 100 that did just what you suggested would fail in frustration and still get it done professionally afterwards having wasted all that money on materials. Either that or they would just deal with the work looking like crap. Who wants to do that on $100,000 plus car?

The shop I finally selected and did my Xpel Ultimate Plus and ceramic work a year and a half ago only charged me $5,000 (I have a soft top). My friend just had his new M3 Competition done there (also with Xpel Ultimate Plus) for $5500. The owner has a great reputation and on any given day you can walk in and see a Lamborghini, Ferrari, McLaren, Bentley, etc. in his shop. I am sure that he charges a great deal more money for those expensive cars.
Sorry To revive old thread, but I'm in Miami and was hoping you could share the shop that you had yours PPF'd at? and any other Miami Shops

Ask for Rivan who is one of the owners and make an appointment. Make sure to call first and not simply drive over to make sure he will be available to meet with you in person.

Tell him that the owner of the Misano Blue Z4 that he worked on with the “ZMAZING” license plate recommended his services.

I visited several shops in the Miami - Ft. Lauderdale area and I am very picky. Rivan prides himself on doing a proper job and pays attention to detail.

Bear in mind that every PPF job might need some minor touchup work on the edges, etc. He has always taken care of everything to my satisfaction!!!

Also one of my friends had PPF and ceramic done there for his Brooklyn Gray M3 Competition. He is even pickier than me and was extremely pleased with their workmanship.

I did my work the end of 2021 and prices have definitely increased since then. At the end of the day, you get what you pay for!!!
