Restyle
Wheels Powder Coating
Refinish your wheels in any color with a durable, factory-grade powder coat — tougher and longer-lasting than paint, for a completely custom look.

Our shop is in Davie, not in Fort Lauderdale. We lead with that because it matters: a color change wrap is a multi-day job in a sealed, climate-controlled bay, not something that should happen in a parking garage off Las Olas. What you get for the drive is fifteen minutes down I-595 from downtown, and a building that has held the same address for more than ten years.
Fort Lauderdale is also the strongest argument for paint protection anywhere in Broward. Roughly 165 of the 300 miles of inland waterways in Greater Fort Lauderdale sit inside the city itself, which means salt air here is not a beach-day event — it is the address. Add year-round UV, two lovebug flights a season, and the daily grind of I-95 and Federal Highway, and a factory finish takes more abuse in Fort Lauderdale than it does five miles inland.
We wrap cars, install paint protection film, apply Ceramic Pro coatings and tint glass, all in one building, by one crew, on one schedule. Color change wraps start at $3,000, paint protection film at $899, ceramic coatings at $499, and every service carries 0% financing for 12 months through Synchrony. Nothing starts until you have had a free inspection and a written price for your exact vehicle.
The shop is at 4651 SW 51st St, Unit 812, Davie, FL 33314, next to the Hard Rock Hotel and five minutes off I-595. From downtown Fort Lauderdale it is a straight run west on the 595 — about fifteen minutes from Las Olas, and not much more from Victoria Park, Rio Vista, Flagler Village, Coral Ridge or Sailboat Bend. We are open Monday through Saturday, 9 AM to 5 PM.
Fort Lauderdale drivers bring us the full range: G-Wagons and Corvettes that live near the water, Teslas and Range Rovers that never see a garage, work trucks that collect chips on the 95 every week. The standard is the same for all of them.
For the days your car is with us, we offer Loaner Car Assistance, and we describe it honestly. Enterprise is a mile from the shop at roughly $35 a day. We book it at our partner rate and drive you over. When you return the rental, they drive you back to us. There is no extra charge for either leg — but it is a discounted rental, not a free courtesy car, and we would rather say that now than at the counter.
Color change wraps start at $3,000 and are priced by vehicle. The final number depends on the film brand and finish, how much of the car comes apart, and the condition of the paint underneath. The full size-by-size table lives on our car wraps page.
We install 3M, Avery Dennison, Inozetek, Hexis and Evolve, and we are certified with Evolve Films. Between the lines we stock, our catalog runs to about 440 colors:
Matte black, satin black and gloss black are still the three most requested finishes we quote, and they are also the three that look most alike on a phone screen and least alike in daylight. That is why the consult happens with the car in front of us. A chrome delete, a wrapped roof, mirror caps or accent stripes are priced on their own and cost far less than a full car.
A few things worth knowing before you pick: 3M supplies 2080 in 60-inch rolls, so most panels can be wrapped without a seam, and its Comply adhesive has air-release channels that let trapped air out to the edge instead of bubbling in the middle. 3M also states plainly that the intended substrate for 2080 is OEM vehicle paint, not stainless or powder-coated metal, and that film should never go over sensors, radar or autonomous-driving equipment without validating the car still works. We check that before we cut anything.
Most wrap shops quote you one number for how long a wrap lasts. The manufacturers do not work that way, and on a Fort Lauderdale car the difference is the whole story.
Avery Dennison publishes SW900 durability by exposure angle. Vertical means within 10 degrees of upright — doors, fenders, quarter panels. Horizontal means 45 to 90 degrees from vertical — the roof, the hood, the trunk lid. In Avery's Zone 1 chart, gloss color is rated 10 years vertical and 2 years horizontal. Black and white are 12 years vertical and 3 horizontal. Metallics and pearlescents drop to 5 vertical. Textured films and ColorFlow are rated 4 vertical and 1 horizontal.
Read that again with a Fort Lauderdale car in mind. The panels that face the sun straight on are the ones the manufacturer rates lowest. A shop quoting a single number for the whole vehicle is quoting the easy panels.
Two more numbers worth having:
The good news for this coast: Avery's own zone chart lists the United States as Zone 1 except for named western states — California, Colorado, Nevada, Utah and Texas at a 20 percent reduction, Arizona, New Mexico and Hawaii at 60 percent. Florida is not on either list. The reductions are aimed at the desert Southwest, not at us, so a Fort Lauderdale car gets Avery's full published figures.
Salt is handled better than most people assume. Avery lists UV, temperature, humidity and salt-spray resistance as properties of SW900 — relevant when the car parks two hundred feet from the Intracoastal. What actually shortens a wrap here is the maintenance: automatic car washes with brushes, which 3M specifically tells you to avoid on high gloss; harsh chemicals; and letting salt film and bug residue sit on the panel. Avery also warns that matte finishes can shift in color and gloss when exposed to cleaners, wax and polish. That is why we hand you an aftercare routine instead of assuming you already have one.
A wrap changes how the car looks. It is not armor. If you want the front end to survive I-95, that is paint protection film, and it starts at $899. Matte PPF starts at $5,549.
PPF is a self-healing urethane film. We install Ceramic Pro's KAVACA line, which uses a Clear MAX self-healing top coat: Ceramic Pro Urban is warrantied for 10 years against yellowing, cracking and peeling, and premium Ceramic Pro PPF adds a thicker, ceramic-coated film with a Lifetime Warranty.
Where the damage actually lands on a Fort Lauderdale car:
Most daily drivers start with a partial front or a full front, because that is where nearly all the chips land, and build coverage from there.
Lovebugs deserve their own line. UF/IFAS documents two flights a year in Florida, spring and late summer, four to five weeks each, and notes that the acidity of the females' egg masses can etch paint — worse the longer the remains sit, because bacterial action intensifies it. Film gives you a surface you can clean promptly without risking the clear coat underneath.
Two related services worth asking about: windshield protection film, which on a modern car with cameras and heating elements in the glass turns a rock chip from an inconvenience into an avoided bill; and colored PPF, which gives you a color change and rock-chip protection in the same film. It costs more than vinyl and does two jobs. We quote both side by side so you can compare.
Ceramic Pro coatings start at $499 and run up through the ION and Ultimate ION packages. On a Fort Lauderdale car the practical benefit is not just gloss — it is that salt film, sprinkler spray and bug residue release under a hose instead of requiring pressure and a towel. That matters more on satin and matte finishes than most people expect, and a coating can go on top of a wrap or on top of film.
For glass we install KAVACA Ultimate IR. Per Ceramic Pro's own product documentation, it blocks up to 99% of infrared radiation, carries 99+% UV protection at SPF500, and uses a metal-free nano-ceramic construction, so there is no interference with cell, GPS or satellite signal. Ceramic Pro sells it only through Elite Dealers, which is what we are. Its 80% VLT film — effectively clear — still blocks up to 95% of IR, which is why a legal front window is worth doing here rather than skipping.
Florida sets tint limits statewide, and Fort Lauderdale is no exception:
We tint street cars to legal and tell you the number before film is cut. If you want darker on a specific vehicle class, we will tell you what the statute actually allows rather than guessing.
Three visits at most, and you know the price before the first one ends.
We take 30 to 40 vehicles a month on purpose. Fewer cars on the floor is the only way yours gets the hours it actually needs. The whole process can be explained in English, Spanish or Portuguese.
We are a Certified Ceramic Pro Elite Dealer with more than ten years at the same address and 4,600-plus vehicles behind us. Hundreds of 5-star reviews, and a shop you can walk into mid-job and look at your own car.
And things we will not do: quote a firm price over the phone without seeing the car, put film over a sensor without validating the car still works, or wrap over failing clear coat without telling you first. If the honest answer is that your paint needs correction before anything goes over it, that is the answer you get.
The car comes to us. Vinyl and paint protection film only bond properly to clean paint in controlled air, and dust and humidity are exactly what put bubbles and lifted edges under film — so we install indoors in a climate-controlled bay, never on site. The shop is at 4651 SW 51st St in Davie, about fifteen minutes down I-595 from downtown Fort Lauderdale. Drop-off is Monday through Saturday, 9 AM to 5 PM.
A full color change is a multi-day job, and we confirm the exact number of days for your specific vehicle at the free inspection, since it depends on how much of the car comes apart. For the days it is with us we offer Loaner Car Assistance: Enterprise is a mile from the shop at roughly $35 a day, we book it at our partner rate and drive you over, and when you return the rental they drive you back to us. Neither leg costs extra. It is a discounted rental, not a free courtesy car, and we would rather be clear about that up front.
No, and the film manufacturers say so themselves. Avery Dennison rates SW900 by exposure angle: in Zone 1, gloss color is rated 10 years vertical and 2 years horizontal, and black and white 12 years vertical versus 3 horizontal. Vertical means within 10 degrees of upright — doors, fenders, quarter panels. The roof, hood and trunk lid count as horizontal, and in Fort Lauderdale they take the sun straight on all year. Any shop quoting one number for a whole car is quoting the easy panels. We tell you which panels carry which rating before you choose a film.
Florida sets the limits statewide, so Fort Lauderdale is the same as the rest of the state. Front side windows must let through at least 28% of visible light with no more than 25% reflectance (F.S. 316.2953). Windows behind the driver must let through at least 15%, or 6% on multipurpose passenger vehicles, with no more than 35% reflectance (F.S. 316.2954). The windshield gets only a transparent strip at the top that cannot encroach on the AS-1 area (F.S. 316.2952). We tint street cars to legal and tell you the number before any film is cut.
Read the manufacturer's bulletin before you decide, and we will put it in front of you. 3M's Product Bulletin for Wrap Film Series 2080 states that coatings and other aftermarket additions — ceramic coatings included — are excluded from its MCS warranty, and Inozetek's warranty language similarly excludes aftermarket products such as wax and ceramic coatings. A coating over vinyl does make the car noticeably easier to wash, which matters on satin and matte in a salt-air city. Both things are true at once. We lay out the trade-off at the consult with the actual documents open, and you choose.
