Do they also detail cars? How much did the ppf run you?

They share a space with a company called Clear Detail. Clear Detail will detail cars as well as do ceramic coating.

Do you know what you want done? I'll have to go back and look but i got the 100% coverage on bumper/fenders/hood as well as side skirts and I also had Joe remove the OEM clear bra and install a new one that was much taller to avoid rock chips on the rear fender. You are more than welcome to look at my car if it will help you decide on the workmanship!

I am thinking about getting the roof done next as I have seen people complain about the durability of the clear coat on the carbon roof from bird droppings and tree sap but have yet to make a decision.

Jose at Safeguard Auto Salon is top notch. He did an excellent job on my 2018 M3. He did Xpel and Ceramic Pro for me. http://safeguardautosalon.com/

That's very helpful, thank you guys.

I'm assuming these shops are good in terms of detailing and tinting as well?

I'm still debating if I'll do ppf. The cost is super high but I know might regret it if I don't get it.

Kevin at United Solar midlothian location did my window tint. I went with the F1 Pinnacle and he did a great job!
