We got our new 2024 RXh last weekend. I got two quotes for XPEL Ultimate Plus.
First shop said they "wrap the edges" of the hood, which I assume means the film goes over edge and is cut underneath the hood.
Second shop does not do that because a co-worker got his car done here and the film goes right up to the edge. He is extremely happy with their work and they happen to be a couple of hundred dollars less for the full front.
Both shops have phenomenal reviews online, so my question is this: Do I understand the "wrapped edges" correctly and is that worth the extra cost?
Thanks!

Front end wrapped
Any of you guys have the front of your RX wrapped and if so what was your costs. I've received two quotes and one was $3800 and the other $4100. I'm not so sure I couldn't have the frontend repainted for these prices.

Pole Position
I had ppf on front bumper wrapping around to wheel well, mirrors and headlights. They also tinted front windows. In addition had infotainment screen done which was $70. Best $70 ever spent. No fingerprints no glare and protection. Total cost $1,400. Installers are the best.

For those that did PPF for just half car (Front bumpers, hood, fenders, etc), does it look different than the rest of the car in terms of shine, gloss, etc? I just had my entire car ceramic coated, but obviously doesn’t protect against rock chips— which is the main reason I want to do front PPF.
