DEF Paint Protection Films/Options

[hurstssj]

New member here since my brother just picked up a DEF CT4-V Blackwing. It appears to be one of the 32 listed in the registry. He'll check in later with his car. For now, I'd love to have one, but I'd have to sell a classic car or two to get there...

After searching this site, I came away unsure if anyone has gone the front-end matte film route, such as XPEL's "Stealth" film, on these Dark Emerald Frost painted cars. I realize the owner's manual recommends against any applications like this.

Can anyone offer any advice on paint protection for the DEF-paiinted cars?

You can use the satin wraps like Stealth without issue on matte paint cars. They work great and many BMW and Merc owners go this route. What I'm not so sure about is only doing the front as I'm pretty sure that'll be obvious on these cars. Someone else may know or you can just call a large Xpel/Suntek installer and ask.
