I'm about to sing some serious praises, y'all, and, if you're not here for it...well, you should be, if you're in the market for some truly excellent PPF/Tint protection for your bouncing new baby Tesla! I absolutely was, and I did all of the obligatory deep dives into Yelp, YouTube, and Reddit threads for literal months while waiting for my delivery date! Yep, that also meant the should I/shouldn't I PPF rigamarole, but we erred on the side of caution and went with it, just to Safety Sally it all. Once we dove in (oh, you utterly wretched Fremont, California paint!), I knew, for sure, that XPEL Austin was my jam! There are lots of great places in 512 that have equally great Tesla reviews, but something about XPEL Austin clarion-called me in, and I def made the right decision! At the risk of making this a novel, allow me to quickly paint the picture: Hubby and I headed to Baton Rouge for the first half of Spring Break, and the delightful Kristianna arranged for our fresh new Tesla to be delivered from our garage to XPEL's huge and modern place on Metric. I only had to add the designated driver, Johnathan, as an approved driver on my app, and, by the by, he got her there with my 99% safety score still intact! Thanks, dude! The service went above and beyond from there! Kristianna kept us totally informed throughout the process, Kristofer was a totally killer PPF maestro (we went for XPEL Ultimate Plus on the full front, plus rockers and pillars), and Ivan masterfully applied our tint (we went for XPEL Prime Plus in 30% on all windows, and clear XPEL Prime Plus on the huge windshield). I must admit that we occasionally peeked in on their work with Sentry Mode! Please don't judge! Lol! They were all truly excellent! Our TWIZZLR looks absolutely gorgeous, and she really enjoyed her XPEL spa day. The price was extremely fair, to boot! I couldn't possibly recommend the good folks at XPEL Austin more highly! Thanks tons, y'all! read more

A few years ago, at the recommendation of the North Austin Porsche dealership, I took my Porsche to this shop and had the hood, the two doors, and the side view mirrors covered. It wasn't cheap. I was told that if it looked bad, it would be replaced at no cost (by the previous manager Kristianna Garcia who no longer works there). Since then, I have had quite a few dings. I'm not at the point where the whole thing needs to be replaced, so I didn't think I'd have a problem. I called and asked if I could possibly have a few little pieces that I could cut to try to fit over the open areas, and the person I talked to, said they couldn't do that, that I could come down and they would take a look at it. That's an hour or an hour and a half, just one way. I asked if the manager could could just mail me little pieces, and the manager had said no--and he said they couldn't do that. I even offered to send him a self addressed stamped envelope, and he declined. I told him I would not show those pieces to their competitors, and they still wouldn't agree to it. So I told them when I was finished, I was going to write a review, and they weren't going to like it. But it's the truth. What I think looks bad, they may look at it and say it didn't look bad. So it's relative? Again, all I am asking for is a few little scraps mailed to me. If you're going to have work done here, just think about it. If you have problems in the future, you may run into a bunch of excuses. read more

Highly recommend this place! The employee that assisted me was super helpful in walking me through the perfect shade for my tint. They were flexible in working with me and super accommodating in ensuring I could pick up my car when I ran late. They did a job well done and the tint on my Tesla came out great! read more

There's a nice sized bubble stain left from one of the bubbles they said would go away :/ brand new 2026 Tesla, $700+ , and more than twice did they want me NOT to do what I wanted..dark tint on back glass, they called it "limo tint". 2 weeks in a passenger removed their seatbelt it scratched off the tint. Now I have to spend that same amount just to have the back glass redone. I've tried putting up with it since October but it's nearly everyday I'm remembered of the experience. Get what you want! I remember the reason he kept giving was "you can see better". This far in and the car has driven itself nearly all the time. I have cameras and blind spot lights as added support. So in the end, I didn't get what it wanted, it scratched within 2 weeks from a simple belt buckle, I went with a high cost business cuz it seemed worth it, but wasn't. And Texas summer is around the corner. It's just, lame to friends get a much better experience and pay $400 elsewhere. And they got the roof done too. I understand product and pricing is different. Just reference to- I can't even say I got what I wanted/asked for. Not even quality. I gave the "it looks good" response on pick up. Just to keep how unhappy I was from showing. read more

I selected XPEL Austin to do a full front paint protection film on our Ford Maverick and I am very pleased that I did so. I spoke with Cody and Justin several times before I committed to using their services and it was their friendliness, professionalism ,product knowledge and excellent customer service that convinced me they were the right folks to take care of my truck. They promptly responded to my request for an estimate and then spent quite a bit of time on the phone with me during several phone calls listening to my concerns, answering my questions, educating me on their products and services and negotiating a very fair price for the job. They and their crew did a beautiful job installing the PPF on my vehicle and they did so within the time they estimated for the work. While I was in the shop I had the pleasure of meeting both guys in person and spending additional time with Justin. When I picked up my truck, I left knowing that I had not only made the right choice in vendors, but that if any problems arose with my install, Justin would take care of it without a doubt. I can highly recommend XPEL Austin without any reservations! read more

I had the pleasure of working with Cody at XPEL Austin, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the service I received. From the initial call to the completion of the tint job, I felt informed, educated, and truly valued as a customer. The attention to detail in their work was exceptional, and the quality of the tint job was top-notch. My car looks fantastic, and the entire experience was seamless and professional. What truly sets XPEL Austin apart is how they went above and beyond to help with an issue I encountered from a previous tint job done elsewhere. Cody and the team took the time to understand the problem and provided a solution that exceeded my expectations. Their dedication to customer satisfaction is unmatched, and I felt reassured knowing I was in the hands of experts who genuinely care about their clients. I highly recommend XPEL Austin for anyone in need of tinting services. I'll be bringing my second car here soon because I trust their expertise and commitment to excellence. Not only was the service impeccable, but their pricing was also more competitive than other places I considered. After contacting five other businesses, XPEL Austin stood out for their honest, no-pressure approach. For those who aren't car experts, this is the place for you. You'll be in good hands with a team that genuinely cares about providing the best service possible. Don't waste your time looking elsewhere--XPEL Austin is the only place I'll be going for my tint needs. read more

This location is an Xpel Corporate store. It's extremely clean and the staff and installers were very professional. I found them extremely knowledgable and accommodating. I am completely satisfied with the PPF and tinting services they provided. I would recommend them to family and friends and will use them again in the future as the need arises. read more

Very personal and nice people. Their products are excellent and whenever I get my car's annual inspection of the protective screen it still looks perfect! read more

I went to XPEL on the recommendation of a neighbor for ceramic tint and a little bit of paint protection film. If I could only give one 5-star review a year, XPEL would get this year's hands down. They're the whole package- I couldn't be happier with their products, the speed at which they're able to provide service, and above all else their great folks. They consistently went above and beyond in the service provided. I can't tell you how nice it is to get into a relatively cool car on a 90+ degree day. read more

XPEL Austin was recommended by my car dealership. Got ceramic coat and PPF applied a couple of months ago. My car looks amazing and it is unbelievable how much easier it is to keep clean. This was not the cheapest service but it has already has proved to be a great investment. Outstanding service from estimate to job completion. Highly recommend. read more

This review is 5 months late (Sorry Angel). These guys are the best. Angel and her crew PPF and Tint my 2022 Porsche Cayman S back in Feb 2022 (right off the boat). The level professionalism is bested only by their craftsmanship. I have no problem recommending them. Thanks XPEL Austin Felix G Customer Since Feb 2022 read more

I've had the XPEL film on multiple cars over the years. Recently I got my car tinted and covered with PPF. The work was done quickly, professionally, and I couldn't be more pleased with how everything turned out. The staff is super friendly and I expect I'll be taking any car there in the future. read more

Y'all killed the tint on my Model 3! Even sent me to and from in an Uber and had the job done in the same day. Thank you!

Good experience. Had full ppf and tint done. When i went to pick up the car they forgot to put my spoiler back on, but not a big deal, easy fix. Had to bring the car back a few days later as some of the ppf did not stick completely as well as having to redo the roof tint since it had a wrinkle in it. every looks good as of now. will inspect and make an update if i find any More hick ups. read more

Do not return calls. Service is way, way overpriced and customer information is NOT important. Cannot do business with these people.

Simply spectacular professionalism. My new Porsche was subjected to a radically negligent installer in Miami but XPEL Austin rescued my car and it is now as gorgeous as could be. They removed the poorly applied PPF and ceramic and did it the way it is supposed to be done, with precision. My standards are high and they met them. Thank you Angel, you and your team are superb. read more

Great team, great service. I was able to get my C8 Corvette in and protected before a long road trip. My car will take a lot of abuse with many track days in it's future, so this is exactly what it needed. XPEL was able to get my car in and finished around my schedule and it looks amazing. read more

XPEL Austin did a great job on my Mini Cooper JCW GP. They did a very professional job and were very helpful to tell me what the car needed. They are are blast to deal with. Duane is one of the nicest guys I have the pleasure of meeting. The installers Evan and Tony do amazing work and I can't believe how the car turned out. Detailers Kris and Brian made the car looked better than brand new. I'm going to take all my cars to XPEL Austin from now on. read more

Really great working with Angel. She was super quick to respond to all my questions. Got a PPF and ceramic coat for a Model Y. Highly recommended. read more

Royal Treatment! We had our Audi S5 "Magma" originally done in San Antonio. We were pleased that Xpel opened a location in Austin. Much closer to home and work. We had some warranty work done there which included replacing most of the Xpel Ultimate film that was on the front of the car. They did a great job in fixing all the problems and were even nice enough to stay after hours to make it more convenient for dropping/picking up the car. read more

Had my wife's Audi interior screens and dash protected here and from start to finish the staff was extremely responsive and informative. 10/10 across the board, would highly recommended anybody here for all the services they provide! read more

One step into this shop from the unimposing exterior tells you you've probably come to the right place. And you have. Modern and clean with a large window from which you can watch the technicians. And technicians they are. The work area resembles a scientific clean room, with bright lights and all types of cars being worked on. Along with a very friendly staff, from Mason and Angel down to each and every meticulous and very friendly technician. Aside from window tinting, their specialty is clear protection or a stealth wrap, turning your dated glossy car into an awesome satin finish. XPEL is the known leader in this area, and this shop delivers. If you're unsure just drop by and they'll gladly place a piece of the stealth wrap on your car so you can see the difference. Pricey...of course, you're protecting your cars exterior for years to come. Worth it? Every penny. My 2018 Audi RS7 has never looked better. read more

I just had my windows tinted on my 2017 VW All Track with XPEL Austin and am pleased with my whole experience. I chose ceramic tint for its quality and comparable price to regular tint. Shops waiting area is clean and they have plenty of Keurig choices. Duane is the manager and was a super nice guy who has an abundance of knowledge. I hope to have the XPEL ultimate film on my bumper soon to prevent further chips. read more

I've use this company extensively for multiple cars.There are very few companies out there that I can say I've never had a single issue with. I'm very particular about my cars and these guys take very good care of them. Great window tinting and even better PPF. read more

The team at XPEL Austin is second to none: Duane, Kris, Evan, Tony, and Brian are the best of the best and I highly recommend their products and services. My Corvette touched almost every part of their system including paint correction, XPEL paint protection, and ceramic coating. I wouldn't consider any other shop after seeing the results. As a perfectionist and someone who appreciates good customer service paired with quality results, I highly recommend them -- they are very friendly, professional, and will answer any questions you might have. Good people. read more

I took my car, a 2001 Jaguar XJR, to XPEL Austin to have new film put on the windows. Collin was the the technician who performed the work and he did an outstanding job. He repaired the time-worn window felt on the seals and custom-cut the film to fit. Colin even stayed late to finish the job so that I could pick the car up early the next morning. It was a wonderful experience. read more

The first time I had Xpel applied on my black C6 Corvette I was more than totally satisfied! The quality of the product, installation and service was nothing short of excellent. I just picked up the vette after having them do the whole hood, top, halo, trunk lid and spoiler. Once again OUTSTANDING JOB! Thank you Duane and company. I wanted the paint protected from the harsh elements here in Austin. Thanks again for exceeding my expectations! read more

Duane and his crew were excellent to work with. The shop is clean and organized. Pricing is very competitive and the Xpel film performance speaks for itself. I am a customer for life! Thanks again Duane! read more

I own a 2014 Lexus RX 350 and became concerned about a pending out-of-state road trip, so I wanted to add some protection to thwart the rigors the road provides. I researched various films and applicators then called XPEL Austin. Subsequent to the conversation I drove to their facility and had my additional questions thoughtfully answered and was actually able to see their product being installed on a vehicle. I decided on the full front end wrap and am glad I did! The process took the majority of the day but the wait was well worth it. At one point the installer stated it was taking longer than he anticipated because he "was a perfectionist" which was music to my ears. He did an incredible job and the application was absolutely flawless. While on my road trip I was stuck on a bridge behind two semi's with plenty of debris and I could hear the constant pinging pelting my windshield. When I arrived at my destination and did an inspection the windshield had suffered some damage but the front end paint and headlights were still in pristine condition! My entire experience with this company was stellar and having their product installed was one of my better consumer related choices. If you love your car and want to help maintain its beauty I highly recommend this company and their product! read more
