Rivian Blue R1S Satin Matte Xpel STEALTH Chrome Delete Ceramic Coat Window Tint

[SeattleClearBra]

Hey Ya'll

Super excited to share our latest installation for a Rivian Forum member @alwayslucky21 at our Seattle Clearbra Location in Redmond Washington. We are so thankful for the continued support from this community! We loved how the Rivian Blue looks in satin

We also offer this installation at our Vancouver ClearBra Canada Location and soon at our upcoming Nashville ClearBra as well.

We installed the following:
- Xpel STEALTH satin matte PPF
- Gloss black vinyl chrome delete
- Xpel FUSION PLUS SATIN ceramic coating to body and rim faces
- Xpel PRIME XR UV rejecting Heat rejecting Window Tint
-Paint Emblems Gloss Black

The client had our whole exterior Xpel STEALTH satin matte package done along with gloss black vinyl chrome delete done to better match the rest of his Rivian R1S which includes the mirror caps, to not have the seam visible, which happens when using the Xpel STEALTH clear bra on the mirrors.

Our extended NON Rivian OEM package also includes all front lights, interior screens, bottoms of door sills, all of the gloss black trim pieces at the roof of the R1S plus the lower front gloss black bumper and very extensive wrapped edges to eliminate virtually every last bit of gloss.

On top of the Xpel STEALTH clear bra we added Xpel FUSION PLUS SATIN ceramic coat which is specifically designed for the Xpel STEALTH satin matte film. This will help make cleaning his Rivian R1S very easy for years to come. It was also applied to the rim faces to help make the brake dust wash off easier.

The client also wanted the emblems and lettering to match with the gloss black chrome delete. Unfortunately there was an issue with our paint finish on the emblems and lettering. We let the client know, graciously he is allowing us to get it right and we will be installing new emblems and lettering when he comes back for his three week post installation appointment. Many thanks to him for allowing us to remedy and get it done right.

We've been very busy keeping up with the great deal of Rivian's coming in for installation over the past few months and look forward to many more.

How do you think it turned out? Do you like the satin/matte look with the chrome delete?

Thank you very much to all the Rivian forum members who've already came in for installation and look forward to seeing those who're still awaiting delivery

I like the matte finish on certain colors but I'm worried about the maintenance. Is it difficult? Can you go through a car wash? What are the care instructions?

Nice job! Very similar to mine, but with a little more vinyl work; I didn’t black out my emblems or mirrors.

That’s sick! I love it.

It’s pretty easy if you got ceramic on top. The Stealth satin finish feels smoother to the touch, so I think would be a little easier to clean than the standard clear gloss PPF.

You can go through a car wash, but I still recommend washing it yourself. Unless it’s something really sticky on it for a long time, regular dust, dry dirt, etc really just power washes right off, so you don’t need to scrub. Bugs are still annoying to remove, but they come off with a lot less scrubbing effort now.

No more challenging than cleaning your gloss coverage clear bra or normal paint for that matter. The film isn't like a satin finish done with paint, where you have significant issues keeping it clean and what's needed to be used to wash it. With the Xpel STEALTH you simply treat as you would generally do to clean your vehicles.

This said, the best way is two bucket method, separate tools for your rims and of course a car wash soap. If you want the simplicity of cleaning to be at its easiest, you would have Xpel FUSION PLUS Satin ceramic coating added, like the client in the pictures did. That's what will make it super easy to clean.

Looks like another happy Seattle Clear Bra customer!

Looks fantastic! Any companies that can do the same in Chicago area? Do I need to drive to Seattle?

Also looking for suggestions in the Chicago area. I know Chicago Auto Pros will do it, and have done several Rivians, but I am hoping to shop around a little as they are NOT cheap
