Seattle Area Wraps ~ Guardline

I'm sure you've all heard of them but I figured I'd chime in with my personal experience...

So we've (Drift-Office) now has a BRZ as well, and the first thing we elected to do was to get it protection. Since imperfections were really going to show on a car like the FRS / BRZ, a bra was a must. A "self-healing" film sounded even better!

Sean @ Guardline had been into the shop on numerous other occasions for dyno sessions months before the FRS came out and had told me about the XPEL protection film. Needless to say, this was pretty high on our "to-do" list.

I've seen Tainen's WHITE BRZ with it on, some other pictures of other vehicles as well, and when we took delivery this afternoon, I was blown away at how CLEAN it looked...

The YELLOW Fogs contrasted very well against the black color too! We're very impressed and you would be too if you went this route! Check em out @ http://www.guardlineppf.com/

Thanks guys!

All done @ GuardLine. Hit them up, I've had more customers go there recently and everyone was happy!

Update : The Black BRZ in the pic had suffered a few light 'nicks' over the last couple of weeks, but with the XPEL self-healing film, I'd have to squint even harder than I do to see them now! A MUST for all FRS / BRZs, especially those that are BLACK!

Cheers!

I mean the fogs themselves not the yellow overlay. Are they the JDM ones? Where did you purchase them?

Everything on that car is USDM bone stock. The yellow tint was ALSO done by GL.

Sean at Guardline is outstanding. Not an FRS/BRZ but, yellow fogs on the baby hauler...





A couple of my friends bought motors for Bob, good man to do business with. Speaking of which, need to PM D.O. about maps for the AVO kit.

+1 for guard line. They wrapped my STi.



Guardline sean's old evo.






They do excellent work~ If I got a white out FRS I would have them wrap my car.

So I ended up getting more stuff done on our development FR-S by Guardline... They really surprised me now... Almost ready for show season 2013!

Is the whole car wrapped? I want to do this but I already have some paint chips from daily driving on the highway a lot. Will I have to get the chips fixed before wrapping?
