Where rock chips actually happen

Road debris strikes the forward-facing surfaces first and hardest. The priority order for PPF coverage is almost always:

  1. 1Front bumper — the highest-impact surface on the vehicle.
  2. 2Hood — especially the leading edge.
  3. 3Front fenders — leading edges catch debris thrown up by other vehicles.
  4. 4Mirrors — small but frequently chipped.
  5. 5Headlights — on performance and highway-driven vehicles.

Beyond the front end

For highway commuters, enthusiast drivers, and road-trip vehicles, debris doesn't stop at the bumper. That's where Track Pack adds A-pillars, the leading roof edge, and rocker panels — the surfaces that get hit at speed by debris traveling across and under the vehicle.

High-contact, low-speed areas

Not all damage comes from the road. The Wear & Tear package targets door handle cups, door edges, and the rear bumper loading area — the spots scratched by fingernails, keys, luggage, and loading everyday cargo.

Full Vehicle

For luxury, exotic, and collector vehicles — or any owner who simply doesn't want to compromise — Full Vehicle PPF covers all applicable painted exterior panels. It's the highest level of paint preservation available.
