About This Project

The owner of this rare manual transmission Ferrari F430 called us to have his paint protection film reinstalled. He previously had film installed on the front of the vehicle by another installer, and he was unhappy with the installation. After speaking with him at length on the phone and sending pictures of our work, he decided to trailer the vehicle to our shop from Indianapolis.

Upon inspection of the vehicle, it was easy to see why he was unhappy with the original installation. There were many problems with the installation, but we were able to get the old film removed without a problem.

The F430 got the paint polished before installing the film on the bumper, partial hood, mirrors, and partial fenders. We used Xpel patterns on this vehicle with some custom modifications to the pattern to make sure it was as invisible as possible on the car. The “F430” lettering on the mirror had to be meticulously hand cut around each letter to ensure the best quality installation.

Once the film was complete, the vehicle got a full exterior detail and an interior vacuum.
