Regarding films, I like Lamin-X over Xpel. The Xpel we had turned hard and hazed up after a year or 2. Plus, it's harder to install. The Lamin-X stayed clearer and softer for much longer than Xpel. I'm on year #6 on the Lamin-X for the coupe and it's getting dull now, ready for a change. My other Lamin-X on the X5 is going on year #3 and it's still clear
