    Best shop for PPF in Seattle/Bellevue?

    Hi All,

    Wondering if there is a unanimous best shop for things like PPF installation/ceramic coating?

    APC is quoting me $10k for full PPF alone. Same goes for EMWraps.

    I'd recommend Imperial Auto Salon in Kirkland.

    They have xpel ppf and tint. I've only gotten my xpel ceramic tint done by them and they did a really good job on it. My friend got this cx5 ppf'd by them a few weeks ago and it looks really good. I plan on getting my front done later this year.

    Ask for Jeff and he'll take care of you.

    I’ve used Accutint in Bellevue on multiple vehicles now for both PPF and tint and have always been very happy with the results. We just had our new 2021 Ford Explorer ST done with the full PPF package and it looks great. They also give discounts if you bank with BECU among other things I believe

    I have been using Midnight in Bellevue ( by Bellevue BMW) and am happy with the results - I only had tint jobs done

    I have an appt in a couple weeks for XPEL stealth and ceramic coat at Benchmark Auto Salon in Lynnwood. They have good reviews and I was quoted a reasonable price

    I had XPEL and Ceramic Coat applied on my '21 SQ5 Sportback at Benchmark, too. XPEL from the "B" pillar forward, including the "A" pillar, leading edge of roof, and rocker panels. The only seam that is visible on my SQ5 SB is the partial roof line. They required three days to complete, and provided a complementary shop car (newer Hyundai Elantra) to me.

    Highly recommended.

    Ended up going with Blue Star Auto Salon in Everett. Very competitive pricing and recommended by a fellow RS6 owner.

    They did both of my cars (my Allroad and my 911) and I referred my Mom to them for her Q3. Tells you all you need to know about them. Outstanding shop.
