I plan to keep this car for at least a good 6-7 years so keeping the paint looking pristine with xpel is an easy choice.
DCM2, let me know if you have any experience with XPEL dealers in Austin. I'm not sold on having it done yet, but am thinking about it. That said, I'm nervous about getting a marginal application done by some shop. Thx.
Would anyone in Austin consider going to Xpel directly in San Antonio rather than an installer?
Xpel has a shop in Austin.... but you can convince me if there's some juicy deals.

You should go with stealth so my car will be more rare in Austin

I went back and saw that it's an XPEL company shop in Austin, so no reason to travel.

I make it out to cars and coffee every now and then and wouldn't be opposed to meeting up with anyone here if you want to see what their work looks like.
