After a long wait I am finally going to be putting my spec into Ariel next month for the car to be start being built. Cannot wait for all the fun the 4 is sure to bring!!!

I am in Southampton and approached numerous detailing/paint protection companies for a quote to PPF the whole car. Not one has come back with a price 😔

Has anyone in the south of England (ideally Hampshire) had their Atom 4 done? If so pleeeeeease share the company name

Thanks very much 👍

I used Auto-Protek near Camberley for my Atom 3.5, they did a good job but was only the bonnet. I also used Konigs detailing just north of Winchester to PPF another car, but whilst there I saw an Atom 4 in for complete PPF. They are a good detailer but don't know how well they did that Atom 4.

I used Mint Condition in Chelmsford. They had already done a 4, so had a template for it. I know they’ve done loads of 4’s now. Did a great job.

For what it’s worth, in my experience the ‘good’ detailing and PPF companies are typically extremely busy and get an awful lot of time-wasters requesting quotes (not that I’m suggesting you are) as there’s always a lot of back and forth.

Best thing is to drive over to see them, discuss what you want/need in person. You’ll get good advice, a feel for who you want to trust with your car, and a better sense of the value rather than the price. Plus, there’s usually some amazing stuff to look at and lots to learn. Good luck!

Edit: And I can recommend Gemclean and Daintons in Reading and Concours Detailing in Aldermaston, should you fancy travelling a little further.

I used Paintshield in Waterloovile. They did full PPF including wishbones, driveshafts, chassis tubes etc.

He has done 5 cars for me over the years. He had an Enzo in last tie I was there.

He has also done another forum members Atom 4 as well.

Pro tint UK in Swindon done a few Atom4s, excellent job with extra coverage he made beyond the Expel std PPF pack.

I've just had PPF fitted by Mint Condition UK in Chelmsford, the same place as Sven and other Atom 4 owners. Steve did a great job, I am really pleased. He has a comprehensive template set that he has created for Atom 4. I got a quote from Pro Detail in Swindon, but they were quite a bit more expensive. I also also got a quote from Scudo Forte in Portsmouth, they were the cheapest but were just using the Xpel template and hand cutting the rest, which I wasn't keen on.
