Quality C8 PPF places compilation thread.
5/24/2021 - We now have 30 states represented! 
Once list gets too long/cumbersome I'll group up the states with the most locations and make just one line for that state, with locations listed by city.
I thought it might be good to compile quality PPF places in one thread, by state. To start off, the one I used in TX for my Merc. Going back to them for the C8. I will revisit thread and add any replies to the list and keep it alphabetical by state (and country where applicable).
Please only post if you are a customer who was happy with their PPF install. No dealers self promoting please (except paid forum sponsors of course, but those wont be added to OP). Also if you can please state what you had done (full front, full wrap, ceramic, combo, etc) and the cost (good idea from poster below). Wont add that info to OP for now, but folks can look at your post to see.

Including the city will help those in large states since the car will probably need to be left overnight.

Yes sir, all places listed in OP have city. Out of curiousity, you had PPF done at a collision center rather than a specialty shop and were satisfied with it? Was it so they would remove panels and wrap aroun edges? The tolerances on many spots on the C8 (bumper/fender joint) seem awful tight so I am expecting PPF to be cut right at the very edge of each panel most likely.

The collision center just happens to be an Xpel dealer. He did the front of my C7 and a few other spots. I didn't know much about PPF at the time and just had him use the precut patterns which came out great but you see some edges. He does cars for the Porsche Club, Corvette Club and numerous high end cars (McLaren, Ferrari , Acura, etc.). I'm on the C8 Z06 list and I plan to talk to him in detail when I get closer to getting my car. I'm looking for a full wrap with as many hidden edges as possible.

Too many factors to make a price quote meaningful. How much was covered in PPF? What PPF was used? What Ceramic was used? Did they do the wheels? Was minor paint correction included in the PPF quote? Etc., etc., etc.
