PPF stealth on the entire truck has got to cost a pretty penny. I had a quote for PPF on the front, hood, fenders and some odd pieces here and there. There was an upcharge due to size and it came out to just about $3k for mostly the front part of the truck. However, they said they could wrap the whole truck for $3k depending on which color I wanted.
$8500 but I had them do the grill too and an extra layer on the rocker panels. They installed graphics and ceramic coat afterwards.

It shouldn’t be noticeable if the paint was properly treated prior to application. It’ll be more noticeable the trucks dirty. My wife’s ride is a 2019 MDX & we did a partial xpel ultimate wrap & the color difference is only apparent when dirty- I bet if you did a ceramic coat on top after the fact it wouldn’t be an issue

On other hand….I’ve seen a white Gen2 raptor in a full xpel stealth wrap….and it looked damn good, like it has a homogenous layer of frost all over it
There is a lot of layers to this. I have multiple white cars, one being my G3 Raptor.

I clear xpel'd my white S63 on the front & back bumpers. This car is garage kept and kept relatively clean. For the first 6 months you can *barely* tell the difference. Once the film weathers a bit, it will have a slight tint to it. Also the edges will build up with road residue. Assuming you arent show room keeping your Raptor, it will be very apparent.

I was going to Xpel Stealth my whole G3 35 raptor. But unfortunately, it is no longer with us. Will report back in a few months when my next one comes in LOL

I did a full wrap of my OW with xpel (non-stealth), no visible differences in color/shade/etc.

Full Xpel on my white GT3. No discoloration. Is it a tinted or matte film?

Is this normal XPEL Stealth behavior? Had my Gen 2 done (not through XPEL) but from my detailer it was $8500 and they had it 3 weeks the first time and 4 weeks the last time. Bunch of peeling and air pockets.
