Doing my research, I have found the full front including mirrors, A Piller, top windshield header and headlight is the most popular. The next level would be to include the rocker panels and behind the rear wheels. There are some websites that have diagrams on each level of PPF. It seems the pricing varies greatly depending on what part of the country you are located in.

I own St. Louis Best Films & Coatings. We do several C8's every month. Although a lot of our customers do indeed wrap their entire car the second most popular option is our "Track Package" which includes full bumper, hood, fenders, A pillars, windshield brow, rockers and are behind the rear wheels.

Different installers offer slightly different packages, I have been 100% wrapping my cars for over 20 years, some call the basic plastic Essential, Full Front, Highway/Track, Full Car, I have seen some with 3 package offerings, and some with 4 or 5, contact your local installer and see what they offer

That’s exactly what the shop I used did for my C8.
