I took a look at the link and that is some serious money. Not that these are the highest risk areas, but it would cost $2600 + your time to protect the driver and passenger doors on both sides of the truck. Ouch!!!! For that kind of money, I would be as careful as possible and then just repaint the truck when I want her looking perfect again. I didn't add up the price to cover everything, but it has got to be close to $100 million dollars.

Check that out. I have been wanting to do the same thing. This seems more reasonable.

Yes it does anyone have experience installing? Is it fairly straightforward

No experience with PPF. Watch a bunch of youtube videos. Doesn't look too hard. Ive done my own window tint installation. Take your time and use lots of deionized/distilled water and whatever other solution so you can position it and squeegee it out. Im going to do my own install once I get paint correction and a 1 year coating installed.

If you try it yourself plan on having to purchase and redo several pieces during the learning curve. I've done it. Is it hard...depends. Is it easy...depends.

I use these people on my vehicles. The film is 3M Scotchgard Pro which in my opinion is the best but I have not used all the films out there. I have used XPEL, 3M VentureShield and an older 3M film from 10 years ago that was named something else back then. When you talk to the film companies they say: "Oh, films have come a long way in the last 5 years or so..." The 3M Scotchgard Pro is the thickest of any I have used and the working time seemed to be better.

One note, the curves on the hood above the corners of the lights was about the hardest to get any film to lay down to but I was working from a blank roll and not pre-cut.
Good luck!

FYI, you can put a coating on top of PPF.
