I took my '13 427 CE in today to have Xpel put on the front bumper, mirrors, and hood today, and quotes on the brake vents and on the rear quarters, but after talking with the installer and looking at the condition of his shop, I backed out. He said he had done a few corvettes and said the bumper was pretty challenging. I just didn't get that good feeling. I have seen his work with decals, stripes and window trim, and he is good, but when it comes to the Xpel, I want an installer who has done a lot of corvettes in a clean shop. Do any of you forum members have any suggestions for installers in Texas or Oklahoma or Colorado? That you would recommend? I am willing to travel for a good job.
Is a drive to Tennessee out of the question? The person who did mine did an excellent job and if
the Museum gets backed up helps them out with the installs.
I am near Amarillo, so anywhere I go is a drive, but I doubt I will be that direction until spring. I will be in Denver in a couple of weeks and Dallas later in September, so I was hoping for a convenient stopover. If I head that direction sooner, I will drop you a note. So far I have been lucky with road damage. I have one very small chip on the passenger door that wouldn't have been prevented without a full wrap and a scuff on a headlight.
Thanks

The Xpel website has a list of authorized installers. The installer I used spent a week in San Antonio learning Xpel's process. After the install we found a hair under the film on the bumper. He stripped the film, re-prepped, cut a new piece and replaced it, no questions. I have driven our Grand Sport from the west coast to Georgia and back and am very happy with the Xpel Ultimate.

I don't believe we have any close to pampa, the closest would be amarillo.
But if you're going to be in dallas, click: XPEL DALLAS
Xpel FTW!
While on vaca in July I came out of a shopping center to find damage on my front fascia from someone backing into it.
Thought for sure I also needed paint but when I got home my xpel installer took off the old bra & to our surprise, no fascia damage!
The Xpel did its job, & quite well I may add!
Here are some pics of the damage, the fascia after the bra was removed, a couple of the re-install, & how the new bra looks.
W/O the Xpel I was probably looking at fascia rework, paint & a few weeks down time.
With the Xpel, I was only down a couple of hours, & for a allot less out of pocket $$!
Thanks Xpel!!
Damage to Xpel clear Bra.
