What was done to this Ferrari 488?
The 488 was covered in full body XPEL Ultimate Plus, our flagship PPF package, with every panel from the mirror edges to the aero parts wrapped.
The 488 has deep side intakes, a low nose and wide rear haunches, all of which take stone chips. For other Ferrari builds, see our Ferrari Purosangue XPEL Stealth PPF.
How was the 488 prepared and filmed?
The car was foam washed, rinsed and prepared before the film went on. Each panel was then filmed, with the edges worked into the intakes, around the badges and over the rear wing.
Step by step, this is how the 488 was done:
