Anderson11 I bought small roll of XPEL film and tried to do my headlights and made a cutout of the back luggage ledge. I practiced cutting by placing the film on cardboard. You're only supposed to cut 3/4th of the film so you don't hit paint during the real application.

In my honest opinion, PPF is not worth thousands of dollars unless you go for a Stealth/Satin finish, the film itself is a few hundred dollars which I still think is BS because it is literally a form of plastic LOL. Then shops proceed to charge you a few thousand for labor??? The front of the car takes the most cosmetic wear and tear, if I can do it then anyone can, take a leap outside the comfort zone. Patience is key, you will mess up, it won't be perfect so what try again haha
