Sample of Xpel Stealth on Thundernight

Went to my local Xpel dealer today to get some quotes. Owner was nice enough to show me what Xpel Stealth looks like on Thundernight.

We both agreed that it just mutes the purple too much so if I do decide to get the Xpel ppf from them I'll be getting the clear rather than stealth.

He's going to provide me some quotes on Monday for different options. I'd really like to do full PPF and then ceramic on top but seems like it aint gonna be cheap. Will let folks know if curious what the price points are.

Any rate here's a few sample photos of what stealth looks like. Tried to catch it in different sunlight.

Definitely mutes the color. I'd stick with the clear.

Tastes are different for everyone, but I think Matte Thundernight looks really really bad. Don't like it one bit...
Thundernight is a fantastic color like it is.
The stealth ppf is great for more neutral colors like the brooklyn grey, the white or the black, but not on the purple, that's for sure.

I was really wondering how it would look. Thanks for the images. I will just stick with clear ppf

Agree! I like it a lot. Looks satin deep grey from certain angles.
