Ok so just dropped off my R1T to service to address 2 creases and a dent in the hood that slipped through QC. The body guy there said that he thinks it’s better to just replace the hood as one of the creases he doesn’t know if it can be fixed at all due to location. Then the service guy tells me...
Following… steps would be amazing but I think the glaring issue is Rivian putting the only grab handle in a completely useless place for getting in and out.
While I agree with most everything you said, the 2k bump is location specific. I was quoted 4500 from my PPF guy for full stealth xpel before Rivian ever sent their first email out. So the pricing is actually fairly accurate in some places. It seems from what I’ve been reading different parts of...
Disagree on the shuttering being normal. I am dropping my truck off tomorrow for service (hood creases and overall dents/defects) and I mentioned at around 75 my steering wheel will visably shake if I take my hands off as well and the service guy said that’s been a fairly common complaint he has...
No this is was done before rivian emailed out about their xpel partnership.
Full disclosure this is not my truck lol. I also have a el cap granite rivian and my truck also had xpel PPF installed at this exact same shop. (Also before rivian emailed us about their partnership) and then was sent...
Yea, just some progress photos taken throughout the install. I’m sure the badges were replaced prior to giving truck back to the owner.
Here’s another photo throughout process that shows good comparison between the color with stealth next to a part of the truck uncovered still
Thanks y’all. Wall charger is all hooked up and rolling. Excited to see when the next meet up is and get a few more Rivians together. Still haven’t come across another while driving yet.
Had mine done by houston PPF 2 weeks ago. William did a great job. Very detail oriented. Actually found a couple hood dents/creases that he brought to my attention. Currently waiting for response from Rivian to get that addressed.
After having already paid to have PPF and ceramic coating done the day after I picked up my el cap R1T… I can say the part folks are missing here is the quality control issues.
My PPF/ceramic guys found multiple dents in both rear fenders and creases and lines in 3 different places on the hood...
Having a hell of a time finding a quality electrician here in the houston area to install my wall charger… feels like these guys won’t give any quote until they can come scope out your house/neighborhood and see how much they think they can gouge you for… first guy told me he needed to rewire my...

Nice, and thank you. That sounds like almost exactly what I was thinking lol. Only difference is I’m considering tinting the light bar across the front black as well.
