Update Michael Justis blocked me after confronting him as feels threatened; His response "Your recent review and the way you have been communicating with me have crossed the line from a customer concern into something that is disrespectful and malicious. Involving and promoting other shops in your review while making accusations about our work is inappropriate and unfair, especially when those businesses were not part of the original transaction. Because of the tone and conduct in your messages, you will not be meeting with me or any of my staff on Monday or at any other time going forward. I will not tolerate being spoken to in the manner you have been addressing me. If you believe you have a warranty concern related to XPEL products, I am happy to refer you to another certified XPEL installer who can assist you with evaluating or processing any potential warranty claim. That would be the appropriate path moving forward. I wish you the best and hope you are able to resolve your concerns through another certified shop." keep in mind he's the one who contacted and showed up first . to multiple shops after I chose his competitor(s) haven't seen this man since 2024. Not even asking for free work or anything warranty related. After he did this whole act he must be called out especially as an adult business owner with a law degree like himself. My response; Michael Justis This response is exactly what I expected. Instead of addressing the workmanship concerns, you're choosing to label my feedback as malicious and shut down any opportunity to actually review the issues. What's inappropriate is refusing to stand behind your work when a customer raises legitimate concerns after spending around $7,500 on a full vehicle wrap and related services. My intention was simply to have a professional conversation and give you the opportunity to inspect the areas I mentioned. Multiple installers have already pointed out the same issues with visible edges and areas that were not properly tucked. That's not an accusation--it's a quality concern. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Your decision not to even look at the vehicle or discuss a resolution speaks for itself.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I will continue addressing the issues with another certified installer as suggested. Take care. read more

I'm writing this review after nearly a year. I rarely review businesses on Yelp, but this one is generally worth it. I had my new Porsche fully wrapped with XPEL and tinted with XPEL Prime+ by Appearance Solutions. They had the car for nearly 2-3 weeks, doing the paint correction, applying the films and then a ceramic coating on top. The results were fantastic. I definitely believe they are the top shop in the area for this type of work. Others may charge slightly less but you won't get the quality of work. Update: went back this week to get a panel touched up. Car came out looking great. They are definitely a busy shop but worth the wait. I would get all of my cars worked on here. read more

Mike and Team at Appearance Solutions did an Amazing job on my X5M Competition! I first discovered Mike years ago when I bought a Tesla Model 3. At the time I was going back and forth between getting my car wrapped in either Full stealth PPF, or just the clear front. I wanted to add a matte look to the car, but wasn't fully invested into the idea of spending a significant amount of money on the film. Time passed and I did neither. Guess what, 2 years later it was riddled with rock chips from the extensive amount of driving I do for both work and leisure. This time around, I was determined to add some level of protection. I made the mistake to not protect once, and I wasn't keen on making the same mistake again. Especially on a vehicle that cost twice the price. I got Appearance Solutions 'Option C' which is their most comprehensive protection outside of a full wrap. 75% of the car is wrapped, all of it is coated in some form of ceramic, and all windows are tinted. I also added the option to have the wheels ceramic coated. Because BMW performance= brake dust haha Mike did an awesome job accommodating me from the beginning. My original vehicle was an order and due to COVID the delivery kept getting pushed back. Mike had no issues rescheduling me every time I brought him the bad news. When I dropped off the car, he didn't carry the tint shade I needed to make the tints match all the way around with the rear factory tint because it didn't make economic business sense to have a tint shade that is really only a 5% difference from what he already had in stock and I agree with that notion. However, Mike put my wishes first to make the car tint match perfectly and ordered the tint I needed/wanted! The PPF is damn near invisible and the craftsmanship is tremendous. To live up to perfection, Mike re-did the hood after the first go ahead (before I picked up the car and without me asking) because of a small piece of lint! Mike will do a follow up with you in a month to go over the vehicle and touch up anything you may have questions on. If it's not fixable, he WILL make sure to redo. Mike stands behind his work and has no problem making sure it's perfect. If it doesn't look right, he will make sure it does before handing you back your vehicle. If something unforeseen happens, he will fix it. If you're not happy, he will make sure you absolutely are. Sometimes doing these things at the expense of his personal time outside of work. The finished product looks stellar and the customer service I received, will keep me coming back to Appearance Solutions and trusting them with every new vehicle! Thank you very much, Mike and Team at Appearance Solutions! read more

Mike and his team are a force of talent, experience, and customer service! Being a small business owner, I know that prices and the level of service could differ greatly between companies that offer the same services especially when I needed tint for my Tesla Model X that has a windshield sized at 31 square feet! Not a lot of their competition even know how to tint the Model X windshield! All in all, they delivered! My Model X looks great from the outside and feels SO great on the inside after they installed Xpel Prime Plus tint all around. The special part of this company and its owner is that they genuinely care for people. I witnessed Mike overhearing somebody having a really bad day across the street (Not Mike's Client). Mike walked over to investigate and next thing you know, that somebody was smiling and in a better mood. An exceptional business puts people first regardless of its industry, and this is one of those rare businesses that you will come across in life! Highly Recommend! read more

I am extremely happy with Mike and Appearance solutions. I had my M3 get a full XPEL PPF wrap with ceramic coating. He did not try to upsell me and was willing to do a partial PPF if that is what i desired. Mike really invested his time up front. He took his time answering all my questions over numerous telephone conversations even before I had agreed to go with his company. He is very professional and his team did an amazing job on my car. One of his leads, Oscar, was also very helpful and friendly when I stopped by the shop. I would recommend Appearance Solutions without any reservations. read more

I asked the Tesla Sales Department in Rocklin CA for a place I could take our new Tesla Y and have a protective coating applied. They suggested Appearance Solutions and so I called and got hold of Mike Justis and he answered all my questions in the most polite and straightforward way. I was sold immediately and setup an appointment in 2 days to drive down from Grass Valley and leave our car. Once I got there we began to talk about the minimum covering on the front of the car. He took me back and showed me several Teslas and what they had done and were doing with them. In so doing I asked another battery of questions and in a non-pressure way, Mike convinced me that I may want to consider the Ceramic paint covering in addition to the protective coverings I had specifically wanted for the front. I thought about the offering and decided I indeed wanted the full protection. We left the Tesla Y and came back 5 days later to see a most beautiful glossy car. I am an engineer and very picking about details, this car looks impeccable. Mike is a very courteous and friendly individual that interacts nicely and follows up on calls and text messages. Great place, I would recommend Appearance Solutions to anyone that loves and wants the best for your 'baby'. Vic read more

After getting my new 2023 Porsche 911 Carerra T, I knew it had to protect it as this was my new baby. I did a ton of research into PPF and tinting and shops in the Sacramento Region and even as far as away as the Bay Area. The shop that came up time and time again was Appearance Solutions in Sac. I reached out and spoke to Mike, the owner of the shop, who was very knowledgeable and we kept in touch periodically until my baby was delivered. The dealership tried selling me there stuff, but I went to the shop that I heard the most positive comments about which was Appearance Solutions. I opted for the full car wrap and tinting with ceramic as well. They take their time and do the job right which I appreciated a lot. They also sent me multiple photos and even a video of their progress on my baby. Easy and fast to communicate with and super professional staff. I wholeheartedly recommend Mike and the pros at Appearance Solutions! read more

Great service and a clean professional environment. I stopped by for an estimate and to schedule a future date but they got me right in and did a same day ceramic window tint service on my 2023 Hummer EV1. Clean work and no residue or stains after. (like my past vehicle). I highly recommend and I was very satisfied. read more

Edit:The body shop called me 15times yesterday, and about 10 times in a morning to make me delete this bad review. The owner first claimed that he called for follow up appointment, then he claimed that he called to ask me to return the part he left under my car. The owner also threaten me by mentioning that he had my home address, and my phone number. For God's sake, I am so glad that I never leave my actual home address to anyone. Now I am thinking about getting a PO box in the future. Be aware! This is not only awful but scary experience to me. Original Review: So, do you want to have some fatal damages to your brand new car? Do you want to experience the worst customer service in Sacramento? Bring your car to Appearance Solutions! This place gave me the worst experience I have ever had in my life. Other than worst custom attitude, they left piece of car jack lift at the bottom of my car. What's even worse? I found out about the "leftover" three days after picking up my car from Appearance Solutions. When I took my car to Lexus dealership for regular checkup, the worker found the piece of car jack lift attached to my car, and warned me about the potential damages it could have done. read more

Mike and his crew did a great job ceramic coating my wife's tesla model x with Opticoat Pro Plus. He was very responsive and accommodating with our schedules and turned around the car quickly. A key distinguishing factor of Mike is his commitment to making his clients happy. Some businesses have no concept of after-sales service, but Mike continued to provide the same level of care and service. My wife had curbed one of the wheels that had been coated and Mike offered to re-coat the replacement wheel for free. I've owned over 46 cars and I can easily say that Appearance Solutions has been the best auto detail experience. All our future vehicles will be going to Mike. read more

I am thoroughly impressed with Mike and Appearance Solutions in Sacramento. The professionalism and customer service is second to none. My Tesla Model 3 Performance had its work done at another company so I was initially going to bring my Tesla Model Y Performance to the same place. However, for whatever reason they weren't able to get me in for service until October, which was too long of a wait for me since I was going to be driving it on my long commutes to work before then. I heard good things about Appearance Solutions on the Tesla Motors Club forums so I thought I'd give them a call. I spoke to the owner Mike and he was very professional and careful not to say anything negative about the competitor I brought my other Tesla to. This is a big deal because it speaks volumes as the type of person and business they operate. There are many companies out there that will try and bash others to make themselves look good and to win a customer. Mike simply showed the value of why Appearance Solutions was different and worth it. I felt comfortable and confident that my car would be in good hands and decided to proceed. When I got to Appearance Solutions, I was impressed with their garage/work space. All the customer vehicles were inside, unlike other places where due to lack of garage space, they would put some cars outside that weren't being worked on at the moment. This benefit turned out to be a huge bonus because unfortunately there was tons of smoke and ash in the air from the crazy fires northern California has been having. Having my car inside the whole time made me feel reassured the smoke would not affect the quality of the work done to my car. I had the full Xpel Stealth wrap, Xpel Fusion ceramic coating, and Xpel XR Plus tint on every piece of glass. Wow, the car came back better than I had hoped! It looked so badass and "stormtrooper-like" with the stealth satin white look and the dark tint. They even blacked out the Tesla emblems and Dual Motor emblem to match. The only thing which is normal was some slight staining on the interior liner of the car from the tint install due to the baby shampoo/water solution drying too quickly. But Mike was happy to get it out for me when I let him know about it. So don't freak out. Just communicate and see what Mike can do to resolve it. They understand your car is your baby and that you spend a lot of money on it so they will make you happy. After about a week since getting my car back, I noticed a small rock chip on my driver side where a it was a known issue of Model Y's getting wear and tear from the front wheel kicking back rocks. because i wanted to make sure the wrap stayed nice, I messaged Mike to see if it was ok for me to buy the Tesla ppf kit sold on Tesla's main website to add additional protection to the car's high impact area. He asked me to send him the link so he look at what I was referencing. He advised it would look funky since the kit sold by Tesla was clear and my ppf wrap was stealth (satin look). He said he can add the additional pieces of ppf on the high impact area in the same stealth finish for me. I asked him how much it would cost and he told me he would take care of it for me. What a guy! i brought it in the next morning (which where I'm at currently while writing this review). If you're on the fence about where to bring your nice car to, look no further. Mike and Appearance Solutions in Sacramento is the place to go. THANK YOU again Mike! I'll be referring all my car buddies to you! read more

Just purchased my dream car, a 2020 Ford Bullitt, and instantly knew I wanted to treat her right as I plan on keeping her the rest of my life. Wanted to get some paint protection film (ppf) installed as well as have professional level ceramic coating and window tint installed before I started putting miles on the car. I had worked with Appearance Solutions before when I was looking for a place to put some ppf on the tailgate of my new truck. Even though they work on all these different exotic and sports/muscle cars Mike, owner of Appearance Solutions was able to squeeze me in right away for I'm sure small to them job, but big to me. Mike did a great install on my truck and treated me like a valued customer so I logged that experience in my memory bank and knew when I made my dream car purchase in the future I would be back. Fast forward about 4 years to now, when it came time to get my dream car purchased protected, I knew I wanted Appearance Solutions to work on my Bullitt. I did get a quote for the same work from another competitor and even though they were cheaper, I wanted to go with Appearance Solutions as I know their work is stellar and their reputation impeccable and well deserved. I have to say I was not let down. Dropped off my brand new Bullitt to have Xpel ppf, opticoat pro ceramic and xpel ceramic window tint installed and I knew she was in good hands. Mike personally greeted me and answered all my questions at the drop off. He answered all my texts through the process and kept me informed of what was going on while they had my car. He even sent me some in process photos to document the work that was being done. Communication was always excellent! And the final result was just stunning!! The ppf was applied with precision and even did custom touches like removing vents to make sure all areas were covered, lines were concealed where possible, and even applied an extra custom ppf patch to protect the rear upper fender where Mustangs typically throw debris. The window tint was installed perfectly I can't find a flaw anywhere and I am very OCD about stuff like that. And the ceramic coating they installed on the rest of the paint just gives it an incredible deep wet gloss shine. I can't say enough good things about Mike and his crew and their high level of work and attention to detail. I have attached a few photos below to show off Appearance Solutions great work. I know going forward I have great protection on my paint, and Mike will always be there to answer questions should I have them in the future. Thanks again Appearance Solutions you have a customer for life! read more

Gotta add to the other amazing reviews here. Mike wrapped our Tesla Model S in 2016 with Xpel Ultimate and it has held up incredibly well. Recently was side swiped and redid a section of Ultimate. Appearance Solutions also added a layer of Fusion on top of the existing wrap. The car looks brand new now. I am floored. You can't go wrong with Xpel products and the business to go to in Sacramento (hell probably in all of Northern Cali) is Appearance Solutions. They might be a tad pricier than the competition but it really shows in their knowledge of the product and ability to get it done. Take a look at the other cars in the shop they are working on - they are all high end. Go to Mike and his awesome team already! read more

Mike and his team did an increadible job on my 2020 Audi R8. It had been butchered by previous owner who had put on a wrap.

I did a lot of research and shopping around before selecting this business. When I stopped by unannounced a couple of employees, who were detailing cars, assisted me immediately. They said the owner would contact me to discuss a quote. Within 30 min the owner, Mike, called me. He was professional and provided me with a quote. I chose his business to detail my BMW X3. Why? A few reasons. 1. The shop was clean and the staff were professional 2. The business has been around for 20 years 3. I saw a lot of high-end vehicles in the shop and it was very busy 4. His prices were reasonable 5. His website had excellent information including some pricing (only 1 other detailer in Sacramento I found had pricing listed) I selected the ceramic coat, including rims & calipers, interior detailing, window tint and a protective film. At anytime during the detail process I called or texted Mike, I received a reasonable timed response. I picked up my vehicle and it looks absolutely fantastic. I have confidence the work performed is at a superior level and I would recommend his business to others. I have a 2nd vehicle that I will bring here for detailing in the future. read more

What can I say? Michael Jutis and his crew are the best!!! 11 years ago he put a seal coat on my Tesla Model S. I was in an auto accident recently and 40 days after the collison repairs were finished I took my car back to him for re-sealing and it looks absolutely brand new. I absolutey recommend him and know him to be informative, honest, and fair. Plus it was a kick to see him after all these years and get this...he remembered me! That's how much he cares about his customers. read more

The owner, Mike, is a busy guy. I found that asking him for a quote from Yelp is the best way to begin discussing what you need for your vehicle. It gets better from there. I waited about 3.5 months to get my custom-ordered BMW from Germany via the local dealer. Despite asking them *not* to wash the car or do that part of the PDI, they did it anyway. As a result, my brand new vehicle had micro-scratches, swirls, etc on the black paint during pickup - any dark colored vehicle will show these quickly on closer inspection. Very disappointing. After talking with Mike, he was able to accommodate me right away due to one of his customers rescheduling work. I also found out that he worked on a number of my neighbors' cars in the neighborhood we moved in a couple of years ago. I went with Opticoat Pro+ ceramic coating & Xpel Prime XR Plus nano-ceramic window tint package (he offers a few packages that can be customized to your needs). Mike spends time educating you on why he is recommending certain things but is never pushy about it. I found out about his shop via a Porsche Club of America (PCA) member that I've met at car shows & Mike has done a lot of work for PCA members. I dropped my car off & the intake process was done by Oscar, one of Mike's trusted staff. He took time to go over in detail what will be done to the car, expectations of when it will be ready for pickup & to choose the tint shade. I was able to take peek inside their work area, which was laid out well & I noticed a few high-end vehicles in there, along with a number of Tesla vehicles. It was quite busy with a number of the staff working on a particular task (paint protection film application, tinting, etc) with each member clearly a pro at what they do. Along with being impressed with Oscar, just seeing this establishes a comfort level that this shop is serious about the quality of the work & the finished product that is the result of that. It's important because the cost of this service is not cheap but is an investment to keep your vehicle looking like new for a long time by providing protection from elements & every day life. 4 days later & the car is ready. Mike sent a few photos of the car to show work progress previously. After being dropped off in front of the shop, I saw my car & it was pretty unbelievable that this was the same one I brought in. The shine, gloss & the depth of the paint was 1000x better than the showroom cars at the dealer. The combination of the paint correction, polishing & ceramic coating brought out the characteristics of the paint where color would shift from very dark grey to black in certain light because the metallic flakes now "pop". The tint is spectacular, it looks OEM+, just a touch darker, & hard to imagine an aftermarket tint was applied to the glass. The clarity was remarkable when I drove off on that sunny day which alleviated one of my concerns with this brand since I had never used it before - without a doubt, Xpel beats Pinnacle or 3M in this regard. I've run out of superlatives to describe my experience with Mike, Oscar & the Appearance Solutions team. They are truly the place to go to in the Sacramento area if you are serious about caring for your car & protecting that investment. Thanks again Mike & crew! read more
