PPF and Paint correction recommendation?

[SupraEffective]

Hey yall, so with the crazy rain here in California ive gotten so many rock chips it looks like my car has acne.

Anyone know of a place that does paint correction and PPF in the San Fernando Valley/Ventura County?

I only plan on just doing paint correction/ppf on the front bumper. If this has been mention I could you please link me?

From experience, I'd definitely recommend front bumper, partial hood and front and rear flanks behind the wheels if you're ever going to run wider than stock or spacers.

Lower fender and rocker panel area. But if your car is already rock chipped, why not just cope with it until it gets worse then respray before filming.

Plus I rather deal with it before it gets worse, its not so bad.

Paint correction isn't going to fix the rock chips. You'll still notice it with film on it.

A compromise could be getting a paint matched touch up kit + touch up lacquer, then PPF over it, will still be far improved especially from a distance ?

Yeah Ive recently bought the Touch Up Paint from Speed industry.

I just wanted to see if i can find some who specialize in this stuff since I'm not so confident.

I highly recommend paint touch up kits from Dr colorchip and Scratches Happen. I’ve used both and they are fantastic and easy to use despite their relatively cheap price. If I were you, I’d try this route first and then ppf over it if you like it. If you don’t, it’s not a ton of money wasted and you could have it respirated. The only thing is, a lot of PPF will peel up paint on a respray when PPF is removed in the future. It’s a pretty common thing. So just know that and be prepared if you decide to go that route if you plan on keeping the car long term.

No, but I was recommened by a buddy of mine to go to Diamond Auto Salon

My buddy got his car ppf and honestly did an amazing job on it, it was pretty pricy tbh but depends how much you're will to fork up.

Clutch. I got a few quotes from spots near Santa Ana, 5k - 6k seemed to be the price range for a full wrap.

That seems fair.

Ive seen some shops go for 8k for full body
