We protected this R1S with our Ceramic Pro KAVACA Matte Paint Protection Film.

KAVACA Matte is an 8-mil PPF backed by a 12-year warranty and a ceramic-infused top coat. This film offers protection against paint chips, scratches, and other impacts while also giving your paint a nice sleek and stealthy finish.

After we finished wrapping it we tinted all of the windows with our KAVACA Ultimate IR Tint. This window film offers up to 99% IR heat rejection and is backed by a lifetime warranty. This greatly reduces the amount of heat coming through the glass and helps to keep your interior cool and insulated on warm days.

To finish it off we did a chrome delete and topped the entire vehicle with our Ceramic Pro PPF coating for added UV protection and ease of cleaning.

Let us know what you think!

Meh.

I'm kidding, it's awesome! Ballpark cost?
We're at $7,500 for a full-body Matte PPF on an R1S. This covers every painted panel wrapped including the skid plates and full light bars. Essentially the only things we don't include are the gloss black window trims (but we do wrap and protect the b-pillars). We also include a layer of our Ceramic Pro PPF coating applied to the entire wrap for added protection and ease of cleaning.

Prices will vary from shop to shop and depending on the level of installation but this gives you a rough ballpark.

Forest Green is such a pretty paint job. Matte isn't a good look for it.

It's definitely a beautiful color!

We were hesitant at first but it looks great with the matte finish. It's hard to tell in the photos and video but the metallic shines through in such a cool way through the matte finish!

We know it's not for everyone but it's definitely very cool :cool:

I was convinced matte didn't look good on FG. None of the matte FGs I've seen in person look good to me. But yours looks good. It doesn't seem to change the underlying color as much

Does KAVACA look different from XPEL? If so, why? Because it's 8mm instead of 6mm?
