Our custom Xpel instal was nearer 4.5% of the new car price, hell of a lot, but in the scheme of things, two years down the line; I've had stones hit the car, mountain bike hit the drivers oder (only gently) and many other debris racking up the spirited miles.
The bodywork is as new, not a swirl, not a blemish. I just touch it up with a kettle of hot water and give it a bi-annual coat of Xpel sealant, with copius amounts of Megs QD in between.
I'd rather a car be covered than one that has resprayed parts...they never match 100%.

FWIW - The bonnet CAN be covered in a single sheet WITOUT stretch marks. It's all down to the competence and skill of the installer. Our car has won Concours trophies (bit of a joke with a new a new car I know), and would never if marks were visible.

Also we did have our first F-Type C-Quartz coated. Doesn't even come close to having the protection of PPF.
Yes I agree, detailer has done them on lighter colour F-types with Xpel but the darker colour either shows stretch marks or glue marks. To be fair he did spend nearly a day on the bonnet but was not happy with it (he's a perfectionist :D )

This the brand my local installer recommends as in their opinion it has a higher gloss than other products, yet still retains all the self healing capabilities ...

Full front end quote I had, to include bumper, bonnet, wings, sills and mirrors was £1650 .... To those that have had this done, how does this price compare please?
I had mine done here http://www.exclusivecarcare.co.uk/
All prices can be found on there site.

I had mine done with premiumshield elite - it was £2100 all in and I had the whole car covered. It was well worth it. Done by Allan at ultimate customs in Glasgow.
