Just about any shop that does XPEL paint protection film on vehicles should be able to do it.

Are you familiar with XPEL?
To be honest, I am not. I need to look up more information on it.

You have a beautiful Platinum. White is a lot 100% better than I thought.

FYI: I went through the owner’s manual and posted this checklist a few weeks ago. I revised it once. These are the checks that I'm going to do before driving it off the dealership lot. Instead of fumbling through the digital owner’s manual – I went through the PDF copy to develop a handy personal checklist tailored to how I wanted to set my truck up. While going through my settings checklist at the dealership & something were to go wrong then they can see it I can document it & get it resolve.

I always plan on spending a few hours @ the local dealership going through the paperwork, meeting the parts/accessories manager, service manager and going through vehicle settings prior to driving off. It’s what I did when I purchased my 2016 Platinum and numerous prior owned vehicles.

Please post an future update when you change out the wheel/tire combo and if you decide to lift/level it out.

XPEL Is kind of like a “very tough“ window tint for the exterior of a vehicle that protects the paint from rock chips and other environmental hazards but it’s 100% clear and hardly noticeable.

Many exotic, very expensive, and non expensive cars have XPEL applied so when it’s time to sell the vehicle, the XPEL is simply peeled off and the paint is perfect.

It can be applied to every exterior surface of the vehicle as well as the windshield.

Sorry for the long explanation but I hope this helps.

I’ve wanted to do this but I’ve been hesitant to apply plastic coating to a 70k truck ??

I ordered a 2021 Platinum in September 2020 and have yet to receive a VIN number in production. It probably won't arrive until they start the 2022 line.

It shouldn’t be too long now. The inventory site is showing more and more trucks by the day
