Xpel Ultimate Clear Bra and shout out to IND!
Hey guys, just got my paint protection on today, used the Xpel Ultimate clear bra film, covered the whole hood, front bumper, right and left front fenders and mirrors. Eventually will do the rocker panels and the lower fender behind the rear wheels as well. What is everyone else using for paint protection? Shout out to IND as well, the installer put IND decals on, I think it added about 15whp LOL

No, had this done by Clear Defense, heard TVP does a good job too though.

He does indeed, has done quite a few of my cars. Glad the computer has the pattern for the F10 M5 in it (for the film template). My new M5 will be headed for similar treatment as yours (with TVP) when it arrives in September.

Kevin had some difficulty pulling up the 2013 F10 M5, theres no template for the 2013 yet, however the 2012 euro version is in their database. The only difference is that there are no amber marker cut outs on the 2012 version, so all Kevin did was to score out the markers, simple enough!!

You can definitely wax it, in fact my installer recommended it and placed a light coat of wax on what he did today. It feels very smooth, and you can feel its thickness. It does feel different from the clear coat on the paint. Overall I'm very pleased.

I like IND too, but placing a decal on your window seems a bit much, unless they are sponsoring your speeding tickets!
