For 9 grand, you could just get the whole car repainted twice

@93-Oct Mayne

Downtime just equals not making money for me. I would estimate 4 weeks of not having a car and the hassle of that or the rental factor. Not to mention the grief my conscience would put me through while waiting to fix the chips.

My current car (Ford Fusion) has at least 100 rock chips in the paint on the hood, a pillars, and roof now. The roads in Houston have rocks all over them. FWIW the car is 10 years old. If I got that fixed every 25 chips or so, I would have painted it 4 times in 10 years.

If I didn't live in a place like Houston, I probably wouldn't even do PPF..

Ceramic Coating, weighted shift knob, and tints first week. Going to be looking into the RTR front grill, I’d like to get red LEDs too. I’m so pumped to get this car!

AS rubber. Most likely my go to Conti DWS.
I will probably need them to get home from Iowa.

Painters tape the whole front end so I can make it to California from Iowa.

Not sure I’m going to do the stereo right away, but I got quotes on tint, PPF, ceramic coating, and stereo upgrade. That’s a few of the mods I’m thinking about. Probably an MGW shifter if the transmission feels just like the s550.

Yeah, I think that was the ceramic coating materials. They quoted Expel ceramic coating the whole car at $2169 total.

Ayyyy that makes two of us.
Got a couple quotes from 2 very highly rated DFW shops to do full front PPF for $2k and $1800.

However, after some research I’m really debating just doing front hood and front bumper and roofline.

Full highest level ceramic tint for sure too. Debating between 70-80% windshield or just clear.
