Partial front and full front are different businesses
The gap between a bumper-and-hood package and full-body is thousands of dollars. It has to be an explicit choice on the estimate, not a verbal one.

Coverage is the quote. Get it agreed before the film is cut.
PPF pricing lives or dies on exactly which panels are covered. Every disagreement about a film job is really a disagreement about coverage that was never written down.
What the work actually involves
The parts generic software gets wrong.
Film and labour are both committed up front
Once material is cut, the job is economically done whether or not it is installed. Deposits and approvals matter more here than in most trades.
Customers ask about the edges two years later
Warranty questions arrive long after the install. What was covered, in what film, on what date, has to be retrievable.

How the workflow maps to it.
- Coverage options priced as distinct services rather than a range
- Estimates that carry approved coverage into the job, so the installer works from what was agreed
- Install date, film and coverage stored against the vehicle for warranty questions
Questions
Asked by paint protection film businesses.
Can I offer different coverage levels at different prices?
Yes. Each coverage package can be its own service with its own price and duration, including per vehicle type.
Can I take a deposit before ordering material?
Estimates and invoices track what has been approved and what has been collected, so material is not cut against an unconfirmed job.
