PPF Self Install...?

I am also possibly looking at putting some PPF on the rear wings, in front of the wheels similar to that on 911s and even my Macan, I wonder if I could just buy a sheet of 3M PPF and cut out from my own template and just apply it. Such a small area shouldn't be that difficult to apply should it?

I did a DIY job on my 991 TTS, applying it to front end, bonnet, side and rear sills.
It's trickier job than it looks and I had to have several trial runs before I was satisfied. In the end, I thought I'd made a reasonable fist of it, but it's very difficult keeping dirt and fibres out of the work. You really do need a sterile location to be successful.
Good luck trying to source Expel, I had no luck at all obtaining their high end films, but I had a friend in the business and was able to purchase a similar product - it's surprisingly expensive BTW!

It’s a lot harder than the pros make it look IMO
ive actually put xpel track tape over xpel PPF for some heavy track sessions and realised that all the flat surfaces on a porsche actually have subtle curves - it was a bit of A mess but did the job for a few days
temperature is also key it can’t be worked and stretched if too cold
