A couple of us have used Paintguard in Waterlooville near Portsmouth.
I paid £1250 plus VAT. that included all wishbones, driveshafts, wings, lights etc.
top job.

Thanks - interesting to know what sort of prices being are being quoted. I have a quote from Scudo Forte (Xpel) for around £2k plus vat so not dissimilar to what you are being told. I have found another local company who seems to have a good reputation so now awaiting a quote from them - although they use Premium Shield rather than Xpel but have the templates. And yes...on the Atom 4 Whatsapp group thanks - certainly lots of useful discussions on there!

Hi, mine is ready end of may also, ive had quotes from £2500-£3200 that's everything ppf,d there is a atom 4 whats app group not sure if you are in there yet?

My Atom is likely to be ready this month so will be looking to get ppf done on the usual areas inc wings. I am based in Devon and may have just had the most 'entertaining' quote from a Xpel accredited fitter close to me - who wanted.....£6,500!!

It is therefore likely I may have to travel to get the car done - thinking of Scudo Forte as I know they have done a couple of other 4's there, but happy to consider any other recommendations. Has anyone come across any other decent ppf fitters in the southwest?!

Yes, it was xpel. Cheers.

Ta - was that for something like xpel?

I used Scudo Forte in Portsmouth. They did my 4. I had all the front facing parts done inc. wing and spoiler, mudguards, wishbones etc. plus some in-cabin parts. They did a very good job. I used a recommendation off this forum so they already had a template (but not wing and spoiler - which they have now!). I can’t remember the exact cost but i think it was around £1400.

There are different qualities of film used. Make sure you go for a premium brand (like XPEL).

With PPF, it really is a case of buy cheap, buy twice.

Cheers,

Want to get round to this before I really use it in anger in the new year. Any other recommendations in the South West that would be worth getting a quote from, particularly any that have the template set?

I had my Atom done at Shadeswraps (@shadeswraps on Instagram) in Bristol. Had my Tesla de-chromed and windows tinted by them too.

I had my springs powder coated, calipers painted, panels changed to chrome purple and then PPF on the wings, panels, mudguards, the lower parts of the frame for around £2800 all in.

Not sure how much the PPF would be on its own but should be quite a bit cheaper. For reference Simon (Bob Smith on the Facebook group) had his wings fully PPF'd somewhere else and it cost £1100 (Think he even had the non-visible sides done unlike mine).

Very happy with the job the guys did but they didn't use the Xpel template that I've heard is out there so I ended up DIYing bits that I'd forgot to ask for e.g. the wishbones.

They did a ceramic coating on my GR a few months back - just gave the chap a ring and he was responsive. Has some very nice cars there and seems to do a good job.

Looks like second week of October.

Hi Rob, I've instagrammed messaged ti22 for a tesla and also my atom but no reply, i think a few owners on here the start of the year used a company in bristol? hopefully someone chirps up with the company and prices when is your atom due rob?

I’ll be getting a quote from Ti22 in Chepstow when mine is ready in a couple of weeks.

Hi im after a recommendation from someone who does PPF?

if anyone has had it done?
And can share the cost?

Im based in south wales but factory/Bristol area not a issue.
