I vetted multiple shops, spoke with each of them, and unfortunately here in Nashville, the going rate for full XPEL PPF from a highly reviewed shop is roughly 8k around here. There definitely was slight variation, but all are pretty close to that ballpark. The ceramic and windshield are pretty standard prices though. I did get some money knocked off for going all out though hehe.

It's definitely way more than I want to pay for something that is barely tangible lol, but I'm thinking in a few years I'll have forgotten the money and be thankful that I did it.

Also trusting the shop is, I think, the main thing to go by, so I may have taken a little hit by only checking certain places that were very highly regarded around here. I'm sure some shops would do it for less, or maybe don't use the plotting/cutting software and machine, but to me that seems like a much bigger risk to give say 5 or 6k to people who just want to get it done quick with substandard films or processes.

TOM'S V2 full aero produced by Kazuki Nakajima, currently the only one in Australia - I think there have been a few sets fitted in the states now.

GS350BO - not cheap at all no, but then I am keeping this car for good! Novel headers going on tomorrow!

I just purchased my GSF this weekend and I am in love. This is a dream car of mine and it fell into my lap. It definitely seems like it was meant to be.

I am personally not a fan of the normal TOM'S Aero kit, but I really like the V2 version a lot, looks amazing on your GSF. The V2 kit reminds me of the Novel kit to some extent. Looking forward to you posting an exhaust video once your headers are installed...

Congrats on your new GSF, it's an amazing car you will not be disappointed! I've had mine for a little over a month now and try to find any excuse to drive it
