These are the prices I’ve been quoted at my NYC dealer. Would someone be able to recommend other installers - I think these are higher but would love to hear opinions. Also what do you all recommend ? PPF ? Ceramic ? The packages below.

I’m planning to buy the car and keep for 5 years, unless the new tech would make me want to change.

PPF:
Nose: $3400
Full: $8200

Ceramic (ProGold) w Wheels : $4600

Dent package: $1900 (5 years)
Tire & Wheel: $3,695 (5 years)

My car would be parked in the bldg public garage. I still have to figure out a good place to wash the car. (so those recommendations) are welcome to.

It’s a Taycan 4S m, CW and Mission E wheels.

I will say it is way too much. Dealer won’t do the work, they will sub it to 3rd party.

I am quoted $2300 for full front or $4k for bull body ppf. Ceramic coating for $1500.

Go to xpel site, search for local installers.

You will get better price for sure

I second this. I'm also in NYC and am searching for a installer for a CT4s. I've been quoted 6500 & 4500 so far to cover in stealth.

You can do your own ceramic coating if you so choose, for a lot less than 1500.

I’m not familiar with NYC Pricing but in Santa Barbara:
Nose (presume this is full hood, front etc)- $2100
Ceramic $1000-$1500. May not be Pro Gold
I would never have the dealer do the work. They most likely are just a middleman and are marking up their cost.
Tire package I would never buy it. You are only going to hear from people who have had problems but $3695 is crazy.

I'm in the NYC area (Westchester) and paid $6500 for full body SunTek Reaction. I do think that shops that do "full sheet" (i.e., not templated) charge slightly more. SunTek is a templated product.

St. Louis, MO -
$1500 for full ceramic including wheels.
$2k for full front ppf

I think full body ppf was $6k.

This was through my dealer, who uses the same place I was going to use independently. The benefits of using the dealer for me were free loaner while I wait and immediate scheduling when car arrived (otherwise I had to wait 6 weeks).

I've not noticed this before (perhaps it's new)- on the UK configurator there's an option (under "Exterior" options):

Protective film (front)
Transparent protective foil for front luggage compartment lid, front apron, front wings and exterior mirrors.
Note: Depending on the selected exterior mirror, the foiling is applied to the painted and carbon components
£1,347

Yes I noticed that one too...as someone who's specced all the other gloss black accents, I've surprised myself by so far resisting adding it. I can't say I noticed the standard finished one on the demonstrator and showroom vehicles, so it must have been nicely unobtrusive...not something I'd feel the need to make a feature of.
