An argument for installing PPF at the Lotus dealership

[Dan C]

My dealer confirmed their PPF is done by a third-party (albeit very reputable) company. The price is about $2k above what it would be at home from another reputable company. The upside: The dealer's recommended vendor has done about a dozen Emiras. My local vendors have not seen one.

The warranty on the film and install is the same, so I am torn. $2k seems like a big premium for "we've done one before".

If you decide to go with a vendor that hasn't done an Emira before, I'd suggest at least showing them this thread and the photos above. And talk about how they might avoid running into similar issues.

I would also try to negotiate with the dealer.

Just my 2 cents.
