I did the entire car and I'm glad I did.

While I did it more for the protection it provides, maintaining the paint looking perfect is super easy. I had the paint corrected and then had the PPF applied and it always looks good and requires zero maintenance.

I recently noticed a scratch on one of my doors and was glad to see the paint was not affected as it was on the PPF. I poured some hot water on the PPF and it healed the scratch ... gone.

I realize it is a substantial investment but this is a six figure car.

In the end it really boils down to the type of owner that you are and how much having the extra protection and perfect looking paint means to you.

I like my car to look as perfect as possible and felt this was well worth it to me despite the fact the car is a lease.

Also maintaining paint on dark colors is a nightmare .. I know this firsthand coming from two dark (BSM & SG) F10 M5's w / no PPF. Current M5C is SG and the difference w/ the PPF is night and day.


Good luck!!
