Protecting the paint on a Porsche, exotic, or luxury vehicle starts before the first rock chip happens. HBi Auto provides professional XPEL paint protection film installation for Winston-Salem-area vehicle owners from our facility in Mocksville, North Carolina.
Whether you're protecting a new Porsche 911, a GT car, an exotic, or a vehicle you've owned for years, we offer protection options ranging from high-impact areas to full-vehicle PPF.
HBi Auto is located in Mocksville, making our facility convenient for enthusiast and luxury vehicle owners throughout Winston-Salem and the surrounding Triad.
Our approach to paint protection is focused heavily on the types of vehicles we work with every day: Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren, Bentley, Rolls-Royce, BMW M, Mercedes-AMG, Audi RS, and other enthusiast vehicles.
These vehicles often have complex body panels, low front ends, wide rear quarters, aerodynamic components, and finishes that owners want to preserve.
XPEL paint protection film adds a nearly invisible physical layer between those painted surfaces and the hazards your vehicle encounters on the road.
Avoiding every highway, construction zone, piece of road debris, or vehicle in front of you isn't realistic.
That's why paint protection film is so popular among enthusiast-car owners. Instead of leaving exposed paint to absorb every impact, PPF creates a sacrificial layer over the finish.
For Winston-Salem owners who actually drive their cars, XPEL PPF allows you to enjoy the vehicle while adding protection to the areas most vulnerable to everyday road wear.
Paint protection film, commonly called PPF or clear bra, is a transparent protective film installed over a vehicle's painted surfaces.
XPEL ULTIMATE PLUS is designed to protect automotive paint from common hazards such as stone chips, scratches, abrasion, and environmental contaminants.
The film is designed to remain virtually invisible once installed, allowing the original paint and color of the vehicle to remain visible underneath.
This makes PPF especially useful for owners who want protection without dramatically changing the appearance of their vehicle.
Paint protection film is designed to help protect the finish from many of the hazards vehicles encounter during normal use.
PPF doesn't make a vehicle immune to damage. A severe enough impact can still damage the film or the surface underneath. The purpose is to add another protective layer before everyday road hazards reach the factory paint.
XPEL ULTIMATE PLUS uses a self-healing topcoat designed to allow minor scratches and swirl marks in the film to disappear with heat.
That means light surface marks in the film don't necessarily require polishing the way an exposed painted surface might.
Deeper damage can still require repair or replacement of the affected film, but the self-healing surface helps the PPF maintain its appearance during normal ownership.
The right PPF package depends on the vehicle, how often you drive it, and how much of the original paint you want protected.
High-impact protection concentrates the film on areas most likely to receive debris while driving.
This can be an excellent option for a regularly driven Porsche or performance car where front-end protection is the main priority.
Full-vehicle PPF expands protection across painted surfaces throughout the car.
Full coverage is particularly attractive for valuable enthusiast cars, special colors, and owners who want more comprehensive protection.
Porsche vehicles are a major part of what we do at HBi Auto, which makes Porsche paint protection a natural extension of our business.
PPF can be installed on everything from a daily-driven Macan or Cayenne to a 911 Carrera, Turbo, GT3, GT3 RS, Cayman GT4, GT4 RS, or Spyder.
Performance-focused Porsche models can be particularly good candidates for paint protection because of their low front ends, wide bodywork, aggressive tires, and the way many owners actually use them.
PPF can also be especially appealing for Porsche Paint to Sample vehicles and other uncommon colors where maintaining the condition of the original finish is a priority.
HBi Auto also provides vehicle-protection services for other exotic, luxury, and high-performance brands.
Paint protection film and ceramic coating aren't the same product, and choosing one doesn't necessarily mean you have to skip the other.
PPF provides the physical protective layer against road impacts and abrasion. Ceramic coating adds hydrophobic properties that can make the exterior easier to clean and maintain.
Combining paint correction, XPEL PPF, and ceramic coating can create a more complete exterior-protection package for Porsche and exotic vehicles.
Choosing the film is only one part of getting a good finished result. The condition of the paint, preparation process, and quality of the installation all matter.
The finish should be properly cleaned and evaluated before film is installed. Depending on the vehicle's condition, paint correction may also be appropriate before the surface is covered.
Installation becomes even more important on vehicles with complicated bumpers, vents, aerodynamic components, curves, and body lines.
Our goal is for the protection to complement the vehicle rather than distract from it.
