You can do what they call a full wrap. So the entire car can have X-Pel on it. Most shops should be able to customize what you would like done. So yes to answer your question the film will protect it from minor door chips. Dents no.

I will add this, I have seen X-Pel get destroyed by hitting something and it not even leave a mark on the paint. Customer just had to get it replaced. Its good tough stuff.

A full PPF wrap is north of a few thousand dollars.

Yes but if you plan on keeping it its worth it. Most services like that report it to carfax so there is record it was done. The program I use Urable reports the vehicle being detailed to carfax. Its pretty cool.

I realize that you do "high-end" detail work and I assume that your clientele can afford to have their complete vehicle wrapped for thousands of dollars. I also assume that for most of us "common folks," that would be out of our price range unless you are lucky enough to own a TRX. If I had the disposable income, I agree with you--a full wrap would be a great thing to invest in.

It is definitely isn't cheap, but it is a worth while investment. I usually suggest is as soon as you buy a new vehicle and or plan on keeping it longer than 3 years.
