Anyone got any experiences with SE PA PPF shops? Good, bad, prices? Planning on doing the XPel package
Thanks!
Thanks!

Hey I got my R1T back from ACAP Films and I think they did a great job and would recommend them. I mostly talked/emailed with a really helpful person named Krystal.
I will note that they wanted to talk me in to an "upgrade". I asked for the $1,500 XPEL front-end version. They offered an option with slightly thicker film, more edge-wrapping, more de-badging. I declined all that and stuck with the regular option. I'm really happy with the results. They have a Rivian there with their upgrade option for you to take a look at to decide for yourself.
I also listened to this podcast episode, but only found it after I got my R1T back. I thought it was pretty interesting and informative about this.
And I'll add that, if you want to keep your Rivian pristine, consider doing this as soon as you can. I had my first rock chip on that front panel within about 4 weeks, and got a couple more along the way before I finally signed up with ACAP.
What shop is fixing the paint? The Rivian-authorized place just up the street from ACAP?Awesome, thanks for reporting back! I'm between them and Modern Elix currently. I have a manufacturing paint issue that needs to be fixed by the shop hopefully this week, and then I'm gonna schedule my PPF. Until then I'm just driving super duper slow and leaving tons of room between the car in front of me.
I was gonna do full stealth, but after seeing my Forest Green in person, I think I'm staying gloss. Both Elix and ACAP offered the upsell with coverage on all headlights and gloss black pillars as well as body colored paint... Tempting...
Thanks again!
