This Land Rover Defender came through our Los Angeles studio as a platform build — panel-by-panel prep stays the same across body styles — wash, decontaminate, align, install. Multi-service builds are sequenced deliberately — one finish has to fully cure before the next one goes on top, so the schedule reflects that order.
This Land Rover Defender came in for full-body matte Paint Protection Film — satin-finish film across the entire exterior, protecting the paint from the rock chips and branch scrapes the Defender actually encounters. The matte texture also hides trail dust between washes.
Defender body panels have square corners and exposed rivets — unlike most luxury SUVs, aesthetic perfection matters less than durability. We chose a heavier PPF grade and wrapped every rivet seam for waterproofing. Pair it with painted calipers and window tint for a complete off-road-ready look.

Land Rover builds with several finishes work when each layer is planned in sequence: paint protection film keeps the exterior factory-perfect against road debris and UV, while ceramic tint cuts the heat soak that California sun pushes into a closed cabin.
Every Land Rover build at our Los Angeles studio includes a written aftercare brief and direct text-line access to the installer for the first month. Questions about your specific build — get a quote or call (424) 207-4435.
