Elite Finish did an incredible job on my 2022 Bentley Continental GT Speed! After getting the car, I contacted various shops in San Diego that do clear bra PPF. I had a wide range of questions and I also watched videos on YouTube to take a decision on the material. Very fortunately, I decided to go with Elite Finish and I am extremely happy about the outcome. The PPF and ceramic coating is totally invisible! Very importantly, there is absolutely no change in the shade of the color (Silverlake). The car is looking exceptional! Kevin and the team were super accommodating and responsive from start to finish. I am 100% satisfied and I gladly recommend Elite Finish to everyone! Once again, thanks a million, Kevin!

Simply the best! They worked absolute magic on my 2008 Audi R8 which was sadly neglected by the previous owners. It looks 10 years newer and absolutely pops in the sun. The ceramic coating is a game changer as well. Highly recommended!

We brought in my husband’s Tesla Model 3 for CQuartz, PPF, and tinting. All i can say is WOW. Customer service was awesome from start to finish (thanks Kevin!), including initial phone conversation, explaining everything in detail, and communication about when the car was done and could be picked up. We especially appreciated his recommendations for what we likely did (and did NOT) need, based on how we use the car, where it is parked, etc. And the work… We had the car for a month before bringing it in, and it honestly looked better when we picked it up from Elite than when we picked it up brand new from Tesla. Most noticeable was how much better the paint looked – so shiny! Their work is truly amazing…. They are professionals and are amazing at what they do. Thank you!

Wes and Kevin run an incredible operation here. I only had my car for a week before I took it to their shop, and they absolutely exceeded my expectations with how it turned out. The communication and attention to detail from the very beginning to the walk through once they had finished was absolutely fantastic. You can tell they are passionate about their work and the cars they work on, and it shows. My car pops even more now and I couldn’t be happier. Couldn’t recommend them more!!!

They did my 2021 GTR with PPF bra and other areas such as doors, rockers, roof and wing. Did a great job tucking the film in so lines don’t show or build up dirt on the white paint. They also did a great job with the tint on my windows with UV protection and smoking out the warning turn signals.

After watching a bunch of You Tube videos and reading Yelp reviews, I decided to bring my new Tesla Model Y to Elite Finish. I am so happy I did! Wes, Kevin and the rest of the team are true professionals. After doing some intense paint correction, they applied full paint protection film, ceramic coating, window tint, carbon fiber wrap on center console, and ceramic coating on the interior. My Tesla’s paint looks like glass…100% perfect. You can tell they are perfectionists focused on every detail. Wes and Kevin spent a long time with me, explaining the proper way to clean and take care of my car which was appreciated. These guys are the absolute best in San Diego…they deserve more than 5 stars. Customer for life.

I want to thank Wes, Kevin and the entire crew at Elite Finish. To wrap a ZL1 1LE with PPF and make it look like it just rolled off the show room floor is a nearly impossible task! These guys go above and beyond to make sure you are satisfied, and when dealing with me that’s not an easy task! Elite Finish is second to none and that’s why I trust them with all my vehicles!
Thank you Elite Finish!

Wes, Kevin and the team did an amazing job on my C8. Fresh from the dealer, they did PPF, ceramic coating, tint and added some aesthetic improvements like spacers, tow hook and de-badging. I’m so proud to drive around with their work making my car look like a million-dollar supercar. Highly recommend. Easy to work with, great communication and genuinely nice guys.

We are so thrilled with the PPF and ceramic coating done on our Tesla Model Y by Elite Finish. Wes and Kevin are very knowledgeable and answered all our questions (and there were many!) via text prior to our appointment and in-person at drop off and at pick up. Kevin even texted us to update on the progress while our car was at Elite Finish. As Wes said, he always strives for perfection but settles for excellence, and it shows. At pick up, the crew walked around our car with a “fine tooth comb” to make sure everything was done right and to our satisfaction. We even received a free waterless cleaner and cloths to keep our car looking pristine. We’d highly recommend Elite Finish! A+
