I drove over to Tampa to Have Ryan install the EXPEL Ultimate clear bra...The templet Ryan has fit perfect. Even Ryan was surprised, especially a new templet...Lower rockers, partial lower doors, partial hood and fenders and mirrors...This product is great...I had to get within a foot away to see a slight hair line on the partial hood...And lower rear quarter panel...I am very happy with the XPEL Ultimate, amazing product, Thanks Ryan and Justin in the photo...

I'm planning on using Xpel as well. Your pics aren't showing though!
Try photobucket.

I tried to post from photo bucket, photos are too small?...These were taken on my I-Phone...I can e-mail someone to post them?...
You may be selecting the thumbnail img code. They will come out small. Use the IMG code and paste it into your thread. That's how I do the pics in my posts.

Just playing around with photobucket to see how it works. Looks like you simply highlight a picture and then go to the SHARE dialog box and pick on the IMG link. This copies the link to the clipboard and then you paste that link into your comments here.
The box looks something like this. (I'm sure there are other ways to do it.)
Text Font Line Number


I had been uploading pictures (jpg files) from my computer but I think this is better for space purposes.

A test from photobucket...





IN FACT, ONCE YOU DO THIS,EVEN WITH YOUR PICTURE LINKS ABOVE, YOU CAN RIGHT CLICK AND PICK "OPEN IMAGE IN NEW TAB". THAT WILL TAKE YOU TO THE PHOTOBUCKET SITE WHERE ALL YOUR PICTURES ARE STORED. i BELIEVE THIS WORKS ON ANYONES PICTURES.


SO IF YOU WANT TO KEEP SOME PICTURES PRIVATE, DON'T LEAVE THEM IN THE SAME PHOTOBUCKET ACCOUNT. I DON'T KNOW HOW/IF YOU CAN ISOLATE SETS OF PHOTO FOR PRIVACY PURPOSES

You must have moved the pic, they ain't showing up again. How big are the originals?

I am looking to get mine Xpelled, got a quote from a local place for the front bumper, front fenders, full hood, mirrors, and rocker panels for $1500 out the door (including tax). From what I can see from others this seems fair? Also, he quoted Opti Coat for the rest of the car at $400 but I'm probably not going to do that, it is my DD but it's garage parked at home. One thing I am considering is Opti coat on the wheels for $50, anyone know of any concerns with doing this? I never heard of doing the wheels but maybe it will help with brake dust.

All in I was $1350 for the fascia, 1/4 of the hood, mirrors, rockers, up 3"s past the rockers, and the top surface of the rear fascia. This is my 4th car done with this guy (best in the Detroit area for sure) so he normally cuts me a 10-15% discount depending on the difficulty of the car. I'd say you're in the ballpark @1500 bucks.

Can't help on the Opti Coat but so far very happy with the Xpel product; have always done the rest in 3M.
