Default Stealth (matte) PPF... suntek, xpel, etc... can those who have it please post pics???

I have an apt. to do a full wrap of my 2020 Santorini black D110 over Thanksgiving... but I'm on the fence whether or not to get it done. I love the glossy black but also like the appearance and protection (I live at the beach) of the matte ppf. I'd love to see some pics of those who have it. If I'm gonna spend the money I'm gonna get it matte, not clear.

For those of you who have added a lift and upgraded your tires, if I plan to do the same do you recommend I do this BEFORE the wrap or does it matter?

Thanks for your input!

This is xPel Stealth over Eiger Grey.
Wrap before or after lift - doesn’t matter.

I originally had Satin Black to protect the sides from pinstriping, but now changed it to Military Matt Green…….





Originally had 3M Satin Black…..

Now it’s 3M Military Matt Green

I was on the fence as well with my 110 X (Pangea & Black). I was dead set on the XPEL matte finish before mine arrived, but once I saw the stock glossy finish in person, I loved it much more than expected. I find the Defender one the most deceiving cars to photograph. I find it pretty hard to capture and judge the shape, finish, PPF, colors, etc., of the vehicle accurately.

There's definitely a mean look to the satin black though if installed well.

Long story short, I'll be team glossy PPF on November 28th

Look forward to seeing the results! I am planning to be a matte Pangea/Black member, once Truck arrives.

I love the matte - sinister and very cool. I went with xpel ultimate glossy since I had a custom paint job on mine...
