Suktek ppf has nissan Z cutouts / design available. It's got a seam across the boot lid below the glass where theres a bodyline. Thankfully my detailer thought that was stupid and covered my boot with no visible joins between PPF sheets!

I purchased the Lamin x kit for my z Last week and had it installed by a local professional.

IT does not fit very well. The installer had to cut it to make it kind of work. I contacted the manufacturer and got a real quick response.
They said to stretch it to fit, this would have taken stretching it about 4 inches on the front to make it half ass work. They called me to come look before cutting it.
My installer along with two helpers could not stretch it enough and even if they could it would not cover every where it needed to!
I sent Lamin-x pictures and they said they would contact me today. Haven’t heard a word Yet!

XPEL has a pre-cut kit for the new Z that I was impressed with. (although I have no experience with ppf installations. This is my first.) I had the "full front" kit installed on my Z by an XPEL dealer in Overland Park, Kansas for my cross country trip on US Highway 50 from KC to California.

It was an outstanding installation. No seams, no bubbles, no exposed edges at all. The only way to tell the ppf was installed was by tapping on the covered sections and then tapping on the uncovered panels. the PPF covered sections has a slightly muted click vs a sharper click. .

Photo of the XPEL covered front bumper and hood after a wash to remove the bugs and dirt from the 2,070 mile trip. Came through beautifully despite dirt road construction sections, gravel streets (in Ouray, Colorado), and "Mormon Cricket" swarms on the Loneliest Road in America - US 50 in Nevada
