Late to the thread, but for anyone still looking I can highly recommend ixexotics off 99/529 in Cypress. Great group of guys there that do a solid job when it comes to PPF/tint/details.

I plan on using American Detail when I take delivery. While I have never done PPF (been driving a Honda Accord since 2007) and don't have any first hand experience with these guys, they seem to have awesome reviews. I've also called around to places all over the Houston area, and AD quoted me some of the best rates for PPF, ceramic coating and window tinting.
Best of luck and let us know how the service go if you choose other place (and send photos!) |

Does anyone know good installers for PPF and ceramic on the west side? I leave in Fulshear (west of Katy), and would prefer staying in the area, but will drive as far as I have to for good quality at a decent price.

Sorry for the necropost. I’m looking for a XPEL (or SunTek) installer in Houston.
I read some of the posts in this thread and reached out to Gulf Coast Auto Shield in addition to Autofilm Specialists in North Houston. Any other recommendations? Any places to avoid? |

XPel Houston on the North side. Also, second (third, fourth, whatever) Gulf Coast Auto Shield.

Ultimately, I think I’m going with Auto Film Specialists which is owned by Mike Norgn, who is apparently known nationally for his PPF talents, training a lot of the bigger facilities in Houston. Apparently, he’s a big deal from everything I read. The reviews from customers are stellar. The price is competitive. They were extremely quick to get back with me, answer questions, and even offered to send me a complimentary roll of Tracwrap to protect the car on the way to their facility. Unless you all know something I don’t, I think this team won my business. Gulf Coast Auto Shield and Houston Paint Protection were my runner-ups. |

Well, I can't vouch for how well the Tesla crowd knows PPF or wrap quality. So please don't take my thoughts for any kind of recommendation. I really don't know either way about AFS. The ones I mentioned above I have direct experience with (more than once) and I am happy with.

I’ll take the plunge with them regardless and post a review when I get it back. This won’t be for a while. September likely. |

I wouldn't recommend Gulf Coast, it's all about Over promise under deliver. Kept my car for almost two weeks for just partial PPF. At the time of drop off I was told it would be complete in 3 days. I had a really bad experience, another friend of mine had very similar experience.
