Expel Ultimate Quote

Hey guys had a local company here in Central Florida quote me $810 for full bumper, half hood, half fenders and mirrors.

Is that about the going rate?

Thanks!

That's fair for a quality installation.

I paid $900 in Louisville, KY. Same as yours but I also added the upper rear bumper for trunk protection. Also, he wrapped over the edges for the hood and fenders. Auto Paint Guard is the company.

I paid 600 for a full car detail + xpel clear bra on the front bumper and mirrors.

The detailer and I were chatting for a while after and he mentioned that just the big xpel clearbra piece itself was like 350ish for our hood.

You should decide on the installer based on seeing both their work in person. I have seen some hack jobs and some master pieces. Real expensive if you have to do it twice.

make sure you have a solid installer. I agree go over there and check out his work. doing it twice is costly. that being said that is a great price, just remember when checking out pricing a person in MN will probably be cheaper than the installer in a metro area CA, NY, NJ, etc our overhead is much more in most cases.
