Car Wraps, PPF & Ceramic Coating in Pembroke Pines, FL

Car Wraps, Paint Protection and Ceramic Coating for Pembroke Pines drivers

Pembroke Pines does not have a shop of ours in it, and we would rather say so than pretend. What it has is a fifteen-minute drive to one: University Drive north from Pines Boulevard, through Cooper City, to Griffin Road, or I-75 to the 595 and back down State Road 7 to 5150 SW 48th Way, Unit 614 in Davie, next to the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel. From Chapel Trail or Silver Lakes on the west side of town, add five minutes to reach the interstate.

Pines is a city of driveways, three-row SUVs and commutes. Pines Boulevard has been under roadwork for years and sheds stone into every lane; I-75 north of Pines runs at speed with the truck traffic that feeds Alligator Alley; and the lawns get watered before dawn, so the lower doors dry with mineral spots on them every morning. That combination is why the three things Pembroke Pines drivers ask us for most are paint protection film on the front end, a Ceramic Pro coating over the whole car and, increasingly, a color change wrap on the family SUV.

All three happen in the same building, on the same car, on the same schedule: paint protection film from $899, Ceramic Pro coatings from $499, color change wraps from $3,000, plus KAVACA Ultimate IR window tint, paint correction and wheel powder coating. Every service carries 0% financing for 12 months through Synchrony, and nothing starts until you have had a free inspection and a written price for your exact vehicle.

The cheapest PPF job is the one you never have to redo

We are not the lowest quote in South Florida, and that is on purpose. The price for your car is published by size before anything starts and there is no fee added at pickup. Every film job includes the wash, the clay and iron decontamination, light paint correction where the paint needs it, wrapped edges wherever the panel allows, and a car that stays indoors from drop-off to pickup. A quote that beats it by a few hundred dollars is leaving one of those out.

Budget film coming off a door after a few Florida summers.

Budget film usually has no anti-yellowing top coat and no registered warranty: two or three Florida summers and it yellows, stains and goes hard on the paint.

Paint protection film has to last at least ten years and stay clear the whole time. That is what your car gets here: Urban with a 10-year warranty or Ceramic Pro PPF with a lifetime warranty, registered in your name, with the job reported to the vehicle’s CARFAX.

The worst case is the common one: a few years from now you pay to have a protection removed that looked cheap today and was supposed to last a decade, and you find the paint marked underneath. The cheap film cost twice.

What a cheap film job looks like

Six things we find when a car comes in to have someone else’s film taken off.

The blade this close to the paint is exactly where the damage happens. Our film is plotter-cut from your model's pattern before it touches the car; any relief cut around a badge is made on the film, never on the clear coat. Photo: Elite Premium Detailing (from our installation footage)

Blade cuts in the paint

The film is trimmed on the car with the blade riding on the clear coat. Every cut line is a scratch you find the day the film comes off. Ours is cut off the car, from the pattern for your exact model, so the blade never runs on the paint.

Dirt and bubbles under the film

Dust, lint and trapped water sealed under the film in an open bay show up in the first week of Florida sun. Ours goes on after the decontamination wash, in a closed, climate-controlled bay.

Seams and lifting edges

Relief cuts across the middle of a panel, edges stopped short of the panel edge, corners that lift at the first pressure wash. We wrap the edges wherever the panel allows and keep seams where the eye does not go.

Film that yellows and stains

Unbranded film with no top coat turns yellow and holds bug and sap marks. Urban carries a 10-year warranty and Ceramic Pro PPF a lifetime warranty on the original factory paint, both registered in your name. Stains are maintenance, not a defect, which is why Full Front comes with a Ceramic Pro Sport coating on the entire car.

Film over sensors and cameras

Film laid over a parking sensor, a radar cover or a camera lens, or a bumper refitted a few millimeters off, and the driver aids start throwing warnings. Every sensor, camera and radar cover on your model is worked around, never covered.

Every Ceramic Pro coating and film we install is reported to the vehicle's CARFAX.

No registered warranty

A “lifetime warranty” typed on an invoice is worth what that shop is worth next year. Ours is the manufacturer’s, registered in your name, and the Ceramic Pro work is reported to the vehicle’s CARFAX.

Registered warranty

Elite Premium Detailing is a Ceramic Pro Elite Dealer with a 5-star record. Every Ceramic Pro coating and Ceramic Pro PPF job is registered in your name and reported to the vehicle’s CARFAX with the date, the product and the installer. Because the film and coating are documented on the vehicle's CARFAX, the reinstallation can be included in an insurance repair after a collision. Terms are the manufacturer’s: Urban PPF 10 years, Ceramic Pro PPF the lifetime of the original factory paint, Ceramic Pro coatings by package (Bronze 2 years, Silver 5, Gold and Ultimate ION lifetime), KAVACA Ultimate IR window film for the life of the vehicle. Staining is not a warranty item on any film, ours included, which is why the coating goes over it.

Getting here from Pembroke Pines

• From Pines Boulevard and the Pembroke Lakes Mall area: University Drive north to Griffin Road, then east. About fifteen minutes.
• From the west side, Chapel Trail and Silver Lakes: I-75 north to the 595 east, exit at State Road 7 and head south toward Griffin Road. Under twenty.
• From the east side, near the Hollywood line: Pines Boulevard east to State Road 7, then north. The Seminole Hard Rock Hotel is the landmark; we are in the complex right beside it, between Stirling Road and Griffin Road.
• Loaner Car Assistance. Enterprise is about a mile from the shop. We book it at our partner rate, around $35 a day, and drive you over; when you return the rental they bring you back. Neither ride costs extra. It is a discounted rental, not a free courtesy car, and we say that up front.
• Monday to Saturday, 9 AM to 5 PM. Walk in and look at a car mid-job before you decide anything, or call or text (786) 876-7891 to hold a time.

One trip, one crew

• Free inspection first. We look at the paint under lights with you, name what needs correcting before anything goes over it, and hand you a written price for your exact vehicle. No deposit to book.
• Everything indoors, in one building. Film, coating, wrap and tint all happen in a climate-controlled bay, by the same crew, on the same schedule. Nothing is subcontracted and the car does not leave the building.
• Thirty to forty vehicles a month, on purpose. Fewer cars on the floor means yours gets the hours a full wrap or a multi-stage correction actually takes.
• Updates at each stage, a real day count before you hand over the keys, and a warranty registered with the manufacturer and reported to CARFAX when the car goes home.

Book the free inspection at 5150 SW 48th Way. We go over the paint with you under lights, tell you what actually needs doing before anything goes over it, and hand you a written price for your exact vehicle. No deposit, no obligation. Call or text (786) 876-7891, or build your quote online.
