The guy claimed he takes a full 2 days, blah blah blah, wanted like $785. Then on the web people said it's not the greatest on dark colors, 3 yrs. down the road it may yellow.......my Nissan which is nearly 9 does have some chips on the front, but I'm thinking it's not that bad, maybe about 5 chips, so is it worth it...not sure.

2 days is total BS.
Yellowing was more of a problem a few years ago; new products are much better.

I'd never get a new car without 3M.

Does 26 miles seem right? What do you think?

Mine had 14 km (8.6 m) on arrival and 26 km (16.1 m) on delivery.

mine also came w/ a certificate that stated the mileage at the end of the road test. I picked it up w/ 3 miles on top of it which seemed normal. see what the gap is between the road test and what is on there.

I heartily concur, this saves the car from looking like a case of acne, we have sand blowing out here when it gets windy, and sometimes you can hear it hitting the car, every car I've ever owned out here has been pitted in the front and leading edges, not just Infiniti, over a year now, and only one nick in mine, and it was there before the paint protection was applied!
