Thanks for the compliments guys. Loving the vehicle every day. Zero regrets at all.

Up to 4000+ miles, several road trips and I have zero rock chips and/or bug stains. I will have the xpel on all of my nicer vehicles from this point forward. The bugs come off incredibly easy as well.

Gorgeous Denali! I'm curious about the "custom phone mirroring harness". Do you have more info about it?

Thanks for all your advice Hosse! Did you get the full XPEL hood done and full fenders? Would you be able to post a zoom in photo of where the XPEL ends? I have a black yukon XL and im debating on whether to get this done as black is more visible for XPEL.

Also, any tips on how to clean off bugs from long roadtrips? ie - any specific products you would recommend? Or would you say a regular wiper and their regular fluid be okay?

Bigger question - how long would you expect this film to last, assuming supreme care?

Thanks in advance -

Took delivery of my 2015 Summit White Denali Friday with 4 miles on it.

4x4, Touring Package, 22s.

Great vehicle = love the interior. Very luxurious seats and trim.

The factory 22s are great. Beautiful wheels with the chrome accents.

My mods so far》
■ Directly drove from dealer to Clear Bra shop. Had a GREAT JOB on Xpel Ultimate install. Had the entire front bumper, both headlights, both mirrors, 24" up hood, front of both front fenders, around door handles, door sills, door lip edges and the entire lower body/rocker area. Perfect install and looks (or doesn't because it's invisible) fantastic!
■ Also had Bra shop tint front windows to match rear. Really like that.
■ HMI Unlock Mod
■ Custom Phone Mirroring Harness to mirror cell phone to in-dash and rear entertainment screen
■ Husky WeatherBeater full mat set - 1st, 2nd & 3rd row & cargo mat.
■ Custom LED Under Running Board lights tied into puddle lamps
■ Valentine One hardwire kit to mirror harness
■ OEM chrome exhaust tip
■ OEM console organizer
■ Sylvania 194 LED license plate lights
■ Philips 921 LED reverse lamps <<<---highly recommend!!!
■ Putco LED fog lamps
■ OEM wheel lock kit for the deuces!
■ Matching Denali emblem on right rear lower corner of tail gate to OEM door emblems.

Just did about a 3 hour cleanup on it. Such a nice vehicle.

BTW got $7800 off sticker. Great deals are out there!

Hosseface, how's the expel ultimate holding up and how does it look now? I really want to get this installed on my Summt White Yukon XL. I found, I believe, the most qualified installer in Sacramento and they quoted me $1800. This includes full hood, full fenders, headlights, bumper, fog lights, mirrors, a-piller, door sills, hitch cover, lower rear bumper. Before install they do a wash and full paint correction before application. It's a 3-4 day process.

Its holding up great. Literally looks like brand new, zero damage to truck so far. Almost 2 years later. Very happy with it.

Is there a color difference between the bare paint and the xpel covered area. Since you have partial hood coverage, is there a noticeable difference? I've been doing some research and some say that solid white is not the best color to install it on. I might just start with the entire front bumper, headlights, fogs, and mirrors to see how I feel about it.

Lighter colors go full panels so you don't see the seams (there, not super noticeable but once you see it, you'll always see it) ... darker cars, seam much harder to see if you go partial

Has anyone wrapped the black trim around the doors? I feel after one car wash, those pieces will have swirls in it so I've been reluctant to get the car washed.
