New car detail and protection.

Hi guys. Just recently picked up my car and need to get it detailed and protected. Is the coating enough protection or do I still need to get some type of 3m film product on the nose and other various places. What places have you guys used in the Seattle Bellevue area?

Clay bar and wax it with protection. Clear bra the whole front if you don't like to get chips, dents and scratches. Don't know any in WA but shop around and get best price for the best products

Google nwautoshield. They only do xpel and tint but do awesome work at a very reasonable price

I did my whole car in XPEL with NW AutoShield in Seattle. Front clip is priced well against the competition. Definately 2nd that suggestion.

I took my car directly from BMW of Bellevue to Metropolitan Detail and had them perform their cQuartz treatment and a clear bra. It was definitely worth it. The car is so easy to clean and keep swirl free now.

+1 NW Autoshield in Seattle for clear bra. Metro Detail is also impressive but very $$$. NW does an excellent job for a reasonable price. Personally I covered full hood, full front bumper, A-pillar, rocker panels, mirror caps and back bumper including rear quarter panels. It's already clear that I've saved the front end from many many chips.
