About this kit
The Mercedes-Benz CLE Cabriolet Base keeps things simple at the front and puts its money into the fabric roof, which makes the painted bodywork the star of the car. This is a genuine four-seat convertible on a wheelbase an inch longer than the old C-Class Cabriolet, so each side has one very long, frameless door - the kind that swings far out in a tight parking space and lands its leading edge and handle area against posts, walls and neighbouring cars. Because there is no roof panel to break up the shape, the eye travels straight along the hood, the fenders and the flanks, and any chip or scuff on that run is immediately obvious. The standard front apron still presents a full-width painted face with parking sensors set into it, right where road debris strikes first. A pre-cut kit shields those surfaces without adding a visible edge anywhere on the car.
Each panel is cut from a pattern taken from the CLE Cabriolet body, with the A-pillar and front roof piece shaped for the soft-top header rail, a front bumper section with cut-outs for the two parking sensors, a rear bumper with its six sensor openings, and separate door sill and luggage area pieces, so the film follows the original panel edges rather than being trimmed by hand.
We develop the cutting patterns in-house using modern 3D scanning technology and produce the pre-cut films in our own production, then ship most orders the next business day. Each kit arrives pre-weeded, so only the parts you order are on the sheet, ready for a clean DIY installation with the included squeegee and spray bottle, or a quick job at your detailer.
Which parts should you protect on your Mercedes-Benz CLE Cabriolet Base? It depends on whether the car is a summer weekend convertible or a year-round daily, and on how much of the front you want to keep untouched.
- Full PPF coverage: the front bumper and headlamp section, the hood and fenders, the A-pillars and header rail, both door, side skirt and rear fender panels, the rear bumper, the mirrors, the door handle inserts, the door sills and the luggage area.
- Front-end protection: the bumper and headlamp area with its sensor cut-outs, the hood and fenders - either as the complete panel or the one-third front strip - and the mirrors, the parts that meet stones and insects first.
- Daily-use essentials: the door sills and door handle inserts on those long convertible doors, together with the luggage area, where climbing over a wide sill and loading bags through a small trunk opening cause most of the everyday wear.
You can choose from a range of films for this kit, from a cost-effective PVC to a premium self-healing TPU, depending on your budget and how long you keep the car. The material guide below helps you pick the right one.
Compare the cutting patterns shown in our shop with your vehicle. The cut-outs for the parking sensors and the panel shapes usually make the right fit obvious, even without experience. Still unsure? Send us a photo via the contact form or 24/7 live chat.
Questions
FAQ
Does the PPF really fit my exact car model?
Yes. Our kits are based on millimeter-precise 3D scans of real vehicles. The scan data is converted into mathematically accurate 2D patterns, ensuring a precise and guaranteed fit.
If a Film appears not to fit, it is usually due to the wrong kit being ordered, an installation issue (e.g. wrong installation environment, temperature too cold, or not enough stretching), or another application error.
If you're unsure about your model, send us a photo or details via Live Chat and we'll double-check before shipping.
Are the Edges wrapped?
Yes, whenever possible. Our patterns are designed so the Film can be wrapped around the edges of panels wherever it is possible without disassembling the car and where a usable edge exists.
For parts like hoods, fenders, doors, and trunk lids, edges are almost always wrapped. You can also check this in our product images, which show the exact coverage.
In some areas wrapping is physically not possible. For example, the gap between a fender and bumper or between a fender and door is often too small to insert the Film without removing parts.
Professional installers who work with bulk Film sometimes disassemble parts of the car to wrap deeper inside, but this is usually done only for very high-end installations.
How long does Production & Shipping take?
We usually ship your order the next business day. All Films are produced after your order is placed.
If we experience very high order volume, production may take one additional day. In case of material shortages or other delays, we will inform you immediately.
Shipping is free for orders over €100 in most EU countries, and delivery within the EU typically takes about 1–4 days.

What if I can't find a Kit for my Car?
If your vehicle is not listed, simply reach out to us. You may have missed it or it may not be released yet. Sometimes we already have the patterns but they are not yet published in the shop.
If we truly don't have your vehicle yet, we can source the car, scan it in 3D and create precise Pre-Cut patterns, which are then added to our Store.

How to remove PPF later?
PPF can be safely removed without damaging your paint. Warm the film slightly with a hair dryer or heat gun and peel it off slowly at a 45° angle. Any residue can be cleaned with adhesive remover or isopropyl alcohol.

How long does the PPF last?
Our standard Film protects your paint for 4–6 years, depending on exposure and care. Premium TPU films can last up to 10 years. They resist scratches, yellowing, and UV damage keeping your paint looking new.
Please check out our Material Selection guide to find the Film that fits your needs.
Can I install the Films by myself?
Probably. Our Pre-Cut PPF-Kits are precisely cut to size.
If you're handy, patient, and enjoy working on your own car, you can save a lot of money compared to professional installation.
We include basic instructions to guide you through handling and applying the film. All essential tools: a squeegee and a spray bottle are included once per order.
Check out our YouTube videos for Installation Tips & Tricks.
There is a lot of Information online and on YouTube. Do your research before installing the first time.
If you've worked with vinyl or window tint before, the process will feel familiar. It's not effortless, but with care and patience, it's absolutely doable and very rewarding to install it yourself and see the result of your own work.
