Default Any members in San Antonio?

Was wondering if any members that frequent the C7 Z06 forum live in San Antonio?

Thanks for the reply!


I see you have Xpel on your car, are you still happy with it? Did you do a ceramic coating if so, who did you use?


Did you put splash guards on? I'm picking my new one up and trying to figure out what my best options are. I have searched the forums and I am thinking about Apsis or the O'Reilly option. I'm trying to find someone that has the Apsis guards or integrated spat that can tell me if they do in fact stop debris from hitting the back quarter panel when used with skirts. Or someone with the O'Reilly splash guards that I can see.

The xpel HQ is in San Antonio so you can rest assured of the installation. I did front bumper, splitter, headlights, mirrors and full tint for around $1000.

I have the GM front and rear C7 splash guards which I prefer for the factory fit and look. I have the Z07 option so full length skirts and I installed cleartastic on the rear fenders when I noticed some micro rash when correcting the paint.

I did my own paint correction and used Blackfire Crystal Coat which I WOULD NOT recommend as it was very difficult to apply even in an environmentally controlled air conditioned garage.

Here's some shots of cars that were at xpel HQ with mine

I am in Boerne and have XPEL tint my car and also Ultimate on bumper, splitter, hood, fenders, a pillars, roof, side skirts, and in front of the rear wheels.

Then I had Thumper's Auto Detail do ceramic coating and do a full detail.

Go for it!

AdamV What have you done to protect the paint on your car? Ie splash guards, paint coatings? Are you a member of any of the local vette clubs?

Hello, I'm in San Antonio. I'm near 1604 and 151. TXshaggy, can you tell me where this is located? "The xpel HQ is in San Antonio so you can rest assured of the installation. I did front bumper, splitter, headlights, mirrors and full tint for around $1000."

I appreciate the help.

Thank you, Juan

I haven't done anything and have been lucky so far but i need to asap. Only have about 5500 miles on it. I got a quote to xpel the front clip from a place off San Pedro north of 410 but couldn't verify the cars they do. Haven't really heard of any vette clubs but I want to get out to cars and coffee and see if any clubs get out there.

Consider Jays Detail in San Antonio, he did mine with Suntek and did a fabulous job, included splitter and side skirts.

I have mine at Jays now. I stopped by and looked at the progress yesterday and its looking great. I'm getting a full PPF and CQuarts Reserve done. It will be finished early next week.

I can tell you he has an eye for detail.
