This was another job in which we had our friends at Auto Film Specialists/Auto Film Mastery assist with. AFM/AFS trainers are some of the best in our country and owned by our friend, and mentor, Mike Norng. We never stop training here at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, and this is no exception. I (Matthew) have always wanted to get good at something much faster than you would expect, and clear bra/PPF/paint protection film training is no different. No one else in Central Texas has attended or hosted as many training events as I have. Now, you might be inclined to think, “Why does someone still need training after all this time?” The answer is simple: the moment you stop training is when you have failed both you, your business, and your clients! I always strive to deliver big-city quality to our small Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area. This 2023 Dodge Challenger Hellcat PPF project was no different! This 2023 Dodge Challenger received a full body PPF and ten year ceramic coating!

    Took my wife’s Mazda CX 5 with a fair amount of swirling in the paint to HHCC and was not disappointed. It took about 30 min from the time I inquired to receive a text and link to book services. On the day of service Matt was extremely professional and exactly on time like he said he would be. The post care instructions and the kit he gave me were an awesome added touch. Car looks great now and I am very happy. Go check him out if you are interested.

PAINT PROTECTION FILM/PPF/CLEAR BRA OPTIONS:

Typically, we would use Autobahn, STEK clear bra, Llumar, or Legend PPF gloss or matte paint protection film. Next, This clear bra article covers the major differences between clear bra/paint protection film/PPF companies, if any. Moreover, there are minimal differences between major film manufacturers like Autobahn, Xpel, SunTek, Eastman, Llumar, 3M, STEK clear bra, Flexishield, Global, Legend, and more. Importantly, the key takeaway is that the primary differences are in the properties of the adhesive, which installers have to deal with, but generally don’t affect anything the client sees.

Is Autobahn clear bra/paint protection film/PPF the same as Xpel film?

Of course, our clients at HHCC frequently ask about Xpel clear bra/paint protection film. Naturally, our clients want to know if Autobahn, Legend PPF, STEK, Llumar, Kavaca, and other brands compares to Xpel at all. Did you know, a lot of people use Xpel to mean clear bra, because Xpel is one of the most popular brands? Besides the information above about clear bra/PPF, we also discuss Xpel and if it’s the same as PPF/clear bra in this article.

2022 Acura MDX PPF & Ceramic Coating - Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights

  1. Acura MDX Type S: Acura, the luxury division of Honda, has announced the introduction of the Acura MDX Type S, a high-performance variant of its popular MDX SUV. This model is part of Acura’s plan to introduce Type S variants across its lineup. The MDX Type S is expected to feature a more powerful engine, sport-tuned suspension, distinctive styling, and other performance enhancements. However, at the time of my last update, this model might not have been released yet. You may want to check with Acura’s official website or recent sources for the latest information on this variant.
  2. Acura MDX and Acura Type S Models: The Acura MDX is a midsize luxury crossover SUV that has been offered by Acura for several years. The “Type S” designation typically refers to high-performance variants of Acura models, but as of my last update, the specific combination of “Acura MDX S Type” may not have been a recognized model name.
  3. Misinterpretation or Customization: It’s possible that there might be some confusion or a custom naming situation where someone has referred to a modified or customized Acura MDX as the “MDX S Type.”



Please note that automotive models and their configurations can change over time, so it’s always a good idea to refer to the most up-to-date and official sources for accurate information. If you’re referring to a specific model or variant introduced after September 2021, I recommend checking the latest sources from Acura or contacting an Acura dealership for accurate details about the Acura MDX S Type or any related models.

Changing a tesla cybertruck to black phantom red near killeen tx
By Matthew Jones March 29, 2025
Love them or hate them, the 2024 Cybertrucks are polarizing cars. At Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we love ALL cars, especially when we get to install color change PPF on them! We have 120 different colors to choose from, and this Killeen area client picked Black Phantom Red from UPPF / Terminax with a 10 year warranty. We have Interstellar Chrome Blue on our minivan, Diamond Black on our loaner car, and have installed the Satin Black on a previous Tesla Cybertruck, and all are holding up great! Despite the abuse that my personal Kia Carnival takes as well as our Kia Forte loaner car, the film maintains a great level of hydrophobics - making the film (and cars) super easy to detail. Even the recent dust storms we had in the Copperas Cove - Killeen - Temple area came off fairly easily with just soap and water (and no scrubbing).

By Matthew Jones March 27, 2025
If your vehicle has hail damage in Killeen, TX, you might be wondering: 🚗 “Does my insurance company get to decide where I take my car for repairs?” 🚗 “Am I required to use the facility where I got my initial estimate?” The short answer: NO! Texas law protects your right to choose where your vehicle gets repaired.

What Can Prevent Hail Damage in the Killeen, TX Area?
By Matthew Jones March 27, 2025
If you’re in Killeen, TX, Harker Heights, or Copperas Cove, you know that hailstorms can be unpredictable and destructive. Every year, we get customers asking: 🚘 "How can I protect my car from hail damage?" The short answer: A garage or covered structure is the only real way to stop hail damage. Even then, depending on the size and wind speed of the storm, you may still experience some level of damage. Many people ask us if paint protection film (PPF) can stop hail, or if those inflatable car protectors you see on social media actually work. Let’s dive into the real answers about hail damage prevention.
Should You Pay Out of Pocket for Hail Damage Repair in Killeen, TX?
By Matthew Jones March 27, 2025
Short answer? Probably not. Hail damage repair in Killeen, TX, Harker Heights, and Copperas Cove can get very expensive—very fast. Many people assume that fixing hail damage is a simple, low-cost process until they see the final repair bill. We often have customers who purchase a car with existing hail damage, thinking they’ll fix it later. But once they realize how labor-intensive and costly hail repair actually is, they start to rethink their decision. If you’re considering paying out of pocket for hail repair, let’s break down why it’s almost never a good idea and what alternatives are available.
The Hail Damage Repair Supplement Process in Killeen, TX (And Why We Don’t Provide Written Estima
By Matthew Jones March 27, 2025
Hail damage repair in Killeen, TX, can be a frustrating process, especially when dealing with insurance claims and supplements. One of the longest parts of getting your vehicle repaired after a hailstorm is waiting for the insurance supplement approval—something many vehicle owners don’t realize upfront. If your car was caught in one of the recent hailstorms in Killeen, Copperas Cove, or Harker Heights, chances are your insurance company’s initial estimate was far too low. In fact, we can confidently say that 99.99% of all hail damage insurance estimates are underwritten or undervalued when first reported. So why does this happen, and how does the supplement process work? Let’s break it down.
Protecting a Limited-Edition 2025 Ford F-150 Shelby Super Snake with Custom Paint Protection Film
By Matthew Jones March 26, 2025
There are cool trucks, and then there are legendary trucks—and this 2025 Ford F-150 Shelby Super Snake is one of the coolest we’ve had in the shop! This isn’t just any F-150; it’s a beastly, high-performance truck built for speed, style, and exclusivity. Given its limited production and custom modifications, this Shelby Super Snake required a fully custom paint protection film (PPF) installation. Since this isn’t an official Ford production model, pre-cut templates for PPF simply don’t exist—meaning this was an extensive custom job requiring precision and expertise. Here’s what we installed on this 2025 F-150 Shelby Super Snake: ✔ Custom-Cut PPF on the hood, fenders, mirrors, and front bumper. ✔ Five-year ceramic coating on the paint, plastics, wheels, and glass. ✔ Hand-cut precision work to accommodate the unique Shelby modifications. 📍 Located near Killeen, Copperas Cove, and Temple, TX? Let us protect your specialty vehicle with custom paint protection solutions!
When Is Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) Not Suitable for Hail Damage or Door Dings in Killeen, TX?
By Matthew Jones March 26, 2025
At Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we specialize in paintless dent repair (PDR) to restore vehicles damaged by hail storms, door dings, and minor dents, all while preserving the original factory paint. However, not all dents can be repaired using PDR. Some vehicles in Killeen, TX, Copperas Cove, and Temple sustain damage that requires conventional body shop work, whether due to the severity of the dent, stretched metal, cracked paint, or material limitations. If your car was hit by hail in Killeen, TX, or received a door ding in a Fort Cavazos parking lot, here’s everything you need to know about when PDR won’t be the best option for your repairs—and why.
