XPEL Stealth

Hi all

I'm considering getting my Marina Bay F90 wrapped with the matt stealth product.

Its a lot of money so really want it to be right. I'm a little concerned as a friend got his Mercedes done by a local guy and it was 'pre cut' which when I saw it, meant it wasn't wrapped all round the edges. This was OK as he had the clear product but it would be a disaster for the matt version.

Does anyone have much experience of this and whether it's possible to wrap the car fully ie over edges such as bonnet?

Any help would be appreciated.

all the trims, door handles, headlights, tailights, etc need to come off for it to be tucked right...

Thanks guys, I thought as much, I won't use that shop if they can't do it.

I am interested to see what it looks like if you do go that route. I have MBB and was seriously considering wrapping it in XPEL Stealth too.

I just had my car wrapped in STEK matte finish. It looks awesome, the shop did a fantastic job. Just outside NYC.

A good shop will wrap the edges and it will look perfect.
