There is a Raptor running around my area that is fully-wrapped in grey matte vinyl and then fully wrapped on top of that in XPEL Stealth. Looks great, but way more $ than I wanted to or needed to spend. I use my Raptor on the highway and light off-road. So to keep cost down, I looked at all the areas that took the most abuse / splashing. I then went to the XPEL site and edited their pictures a bit for what I wanted and then had it installed. It is Ultimate everywhere on the Silver paint. I used Stealth on the Gray parts. I did not do the front bumper yet as I wanted to see how the Stealth looked once on and fully dried. The Stealth looks great and is harder to detect than the Ultimate on the Silver. I did not do the FORD letter on the front as adding Rappygraphics over those.

Here are the areas I covered.

A few pictures, but all pictures of XPEL look about the same. Note the B Pillars. They had light swirl marks from dealer prep. I knew from previous experience to just leave it alone and when covered with XPEL it would hide the swirls. Came out great.

The small hood piece can be seen, but the nice thing is that the pattern follows the breaks in the hood across the front. So way less noticeable than if went across middle of the hood.

The Stealth on the Gray came out the best.

Why don't most shops ever talk about the headlight film? This is the first time I've heard about it and easily have gotten quotes from 20+ shops all over the east coast for wrapping vehicles.

My guy just added it in. He didn't separate it.

My entire front was 2k. That's full hood, mirrors, front fenders, e pillars, front bumper including painted and matte parts (different film as mentioned), headlights, fender flares, and I did my tailgate as well.

^ Awesome man thanks for the pics. Looks great. I'll def be doing clear something similar. I really wanted to get some coverage all the doors and sides as that's where all the rocks get kicked up. But the that's like getting the entire truck covered lol. Which is is great but costs a ton
