Paint Protection Film - Cost?

Post by FaisalJ » Tue Aug 22, 2017 9:00 am

Hi guys

How much should I be paying for full front end protection on my B7 RS4? Full bumper, wings and bonnet?

Probably going for a front end respray soon (stonechips, bit of corrosion on the bonnet, and have somehow got a small crack around one of the side vents on the bumper). As much as I like GTechniq coatings, it'll be useless against stone chips.

Cheers!

I paid about 700 (maybe 750) for the front end of my C7 (which is much bigger than a B7) . That included full bonnet, full front wings, front bumper, headlights, grille surround, side flaps, wing mirrors and lip spoiler. This was at the same time as a detail so may have been a bit cheaper due to no prep work required.
Others that have been quoted recently for a similar wrap ha e been quoted double that (maybe due to being closer to London).

I had my car detailed by Deep Impact Detailing and then Bodyguard UK did the film. They are both based in the same unit in Daventry so probably a bit less than Andys guys.

Seems the drive up here now is worth doing ;)
