Stealth PPF Limestone R1T w/ Tint. (OC Interior; 20” AT Dark)

[dbthethird]

I got my truck at the end of November (Limestone R1T; Adventure Package; Ocean Coast Interior; 20” All Terrain Dark Wheels; Guide Susan). I picked up the truck at the Costa Mesa, CA Service Center and drove straight to my tint/wrap guy over at Elevance in Hawaiian Gardens.

I wanted to keep a grey and black theme with those subtle yellow details (CA’s black and yellow 60’s Legacy license plates help ?). The shop did the following:

- Full matte PPF wrap (including edges and de-badging/re-badging)
- Glossy black wrap on black trim
- Silver sections of front and rear bumpers wrapped black (then covered with PPF)
- 15% nano ceramic tint all around (including panoramic roof)
- Slight tint applied to headlights
- Blacked out badges (rear badges painted, but the remaining badges wrapped to retain the yellow sides)
- Ceramic coat all around

I thought I’d share the results since I haven’t seen many images of stealth Limestone R1’s. I couldn’t be happier with the results and to finally be a part of the club!

Here’s a mix of shop photos and my own, which give a slight sense of the tone under different lighting conditions.

Edit: Here’s a couple pics from before the re-badging. I figured I’d help out by showing as many different lighting conditions as possible. This is under the fluorescent lighting in the shop.

Looking good!

I picked up my R1T Saturday afternoon and dropped off my truck early this morning for window tint and frontal PPF. The blunt R1T front end needs protection!

I am having them apply XPEL Ultimate Fusion PPF to the entire hood, valance, bumper, charging port, mirrors and all front end lighting. They will also be covering the upper half of the tailgate.

Nice! Post pics of the results. Have you used the ultimate fusion before? I’d be interested in hearing your thoughts and how it compares to traditional PPF with ceramic coating.

I have not, only XPEL Ultimate. It's the only film that my installer uses now. He is 100% sold on the product and has been installing PPF for almost a decade.

How is the pricing at that PPF shop? I ask because it's fairly close to me. Its either that or 1clearbraco in aliso viejo (recommended by many on these forums)

Where did you get the PPF done, and price if you don't mind me asking?

Coastal Films in Huntington Beach.

I am a repeat customer and get better pricing than walk in's. Call and ask for Spencer, he will treat you right.

I'd say the pricing is good, but it's not cheap. I think you get what you pay for. Elevance doesn't use XPEL because XPEL required them to be solely dedicated and not sell other brands. From my (limited) understanding, there isn't much difference between brands of film but skill and quality of installation is critical. This shop has done several of my friends' Teslas and Porsches, and they do an amazing job. It was also critical to me that the film covered the edges and that they de-badged rather than cut the film. If you go check them out, ask for Steve!

Thank you for posting. Incredible. I have been looking for more Limestone Stealth photos, have yet to see one in person, but looks really good.

FYI, I just added some extra photos of it under fluorescents, to give you some additional perspective.

Ok so this is obviously not XPEL stealth because you mentioned it above. I was told the XPEL Stealth ppf has a satin finish, which is different than a matte finish. Does anyone else have the same understanding?

My guess is he had STEK matte installed.

Nice, I had a la silver but that order got dropped so I found a limestone with coastal interior and 21, I reserved that, but was not sure about ocean coast, but looks nice, so tinted 15 all around sunroof and windshield?
