In this video I apply Paint Protection Film (PPF) to the sides and back of our 2023 Tesla Model Y and compare how difficult it was to do compared to the front of the vehicle that I applied PPF to in this prior video.    • Save Money Installing Drive Protected...  

As a point of pricing reference I checked with a local installer who uses STEK DYNOshield (10 year warranty and 8 mil thick) and for just the front end using pre-cut templates like I installed in this video they charge $1,550. Or $1,850 to remove emblems and garnishes to wrap all edges. A whole vehicle PPF wrap is $5,500 for installing pre-cut templates, or $6,500 for installing the same pre-cut templates but with emblems, mirrors, window trim, fenders removed and PPF wrapped around those edges.
