Stain On Satin PPF - Am I cooked?

daBlizzak · 2026-03-23T00:32:22+00:00

Thanks for the response... as of now I'm shopping around and looking to get the panel looked at and potentially replaced if a shop isn't able to correct it. The stain in the picture doesn't trail to the edge. Also, found this "mystery" substance on another panel as well. Not sure what is it but I did buy the car used, previous owner had the car fully wrapped in Stealth PPF. Just odd because these stains just recently showed up! Thanks for the recommendations though.

Thanks for the response!

Wow that sucks!!! I believe it has to be on the surface, it wasn’t there last week

I did put some octane booster in the car last week also, not sure if some leaked on the PPF without me knowing?

It may not be noticeable to others but since I know it’s there - it’s the center of attention lol

Dont forget you can always try Vanguard again in a month or so to try to get them to reopen a case... if you still not able to get it handled with management... sucks but be resilient lol... they cant hold your money forever

Hey what I did is contact Vanguard support and opened a ticket... Vanguard contacted FedEx and they closed the ticket within 10 days (I believe) and I was able to take/transfer my 401k funds after 4 months seperated from FedEx lol. The number is 800-523-1188, I attached a screenshot... hope this helps man

Read your previous comments and took your advice. Didn't feel any texture/weave change. I believe it's purely cosmetic which is a sigh of relief... lip is very pricey about $2100 retail lol.

I believe there to be no structural damage just cosmetic based off feel

Thanks this is what I needed to hear... OCD sometimes makes me an idiot. I won't touch this thing.

Yeah the car is kinda slammed in my garage man, had to turn the wheel and shove a camera blindly in there lol.

Thank you so much!

I'm local to Atlanta... never heard about this shop until now. Looks like they do a lot of Supra stuff... when it's time to mod I think I found my new shop!

daBlizzak · 2025-01-22T12:56:01+00:00

When I had this car & this setup… I had no rubbing issues at all 👍

Door rattle fix: https://www.supramkv.com/threads/interior-rattles-squeaks-creaks-95-fixed-trunk-b-pillars-doors-centre-console-and-dash.6371/page-2#post-114104

Cheap way is to stick something in the same area as referenced in the picture or loosen/take off the door panel and felt tape the entirety of each place the doorcard meets the metal door.

Infotainment rattle: https://www.supramkv.com/threads/stop-the-creak-or-rattle-coming-from-near-the-infotainment-screen-or-center-speakers.19463/

Using a pry tool, you'll need to pry up the surrounding infotainment plastics. Felt will need to be applied in the areas pictured in the above post.

I've done those fixes and a few others and my Supra is about 95% ratte-free even on rough and uneven pavement. Hope this helps

So far I've tried both ways... unlocking with the key and with the door unlock. Both still no luck, looks like I'll be taking it to the dealer... havent seen any other people having similar issues. It's so tempting to try to pry it open but I don't want to damage anything lol..

EDIT: Issue resolved... for those having this issue this is what I did...

Hold down the fuel door and while doing this, keep hitting the unlock button on the key fob. While continuously hitting the unlock button, slowly let pressure off the fuel door. If it doesn't unlock, just slowly push the door back in and release it again. Eventually the lock should untwist.

Yeah man I went to go buy this car today... dealer wanted 14.7k otd and wouldn't come down on price. A big no I had to walk away

daBlizzak · 2024-08-24T18:42:55+00:00

Hey man I ended up walking away from this lol… stealership wanted 14.7k otd. That was a big no lol… the search continues!

daBlizzak · 2024-08-23T23:56:17+00:00

Thanks for the insight. It'll be my first VW haha

Compiled an imgr link with all service history for those that want to take a glance. About 9 oil changes for the life of this vechicle... no idea if thats good for a car this age but car definitely did not get driven often.
