I asked 1,000 questions before I agreed to have my dealer (who has a 3M certified installer on staff) install my 3M bra.
One of the major questions was coverage and they explained that they normally do the front bumper, hood and front fenders only... for $795
We finally agreed on Hood, Fenders, Complete Front Bumper, including lower spoiler, and Side Mirrors... for $695.
This is known as the "Extended Coverage" kit.
The guy who installed it did an awesome job and I was very happy with the price, once compared to other 3M installers in my area.

Sorry to hear about your experience, but not all dealer installs suck, and it certainly helps to ask questions BEFORE the job gets done.

 

Yea, I am with Aeson

The dealer did mine as well, which included part of the hood, all of the front bumper, side mirrors, part of the fender, and even the lower black plastic "spoiler" under the front bumper.

 

I had my bra put on the same week I bought my 07 sedan. Extended coverage 3M clear bra (upper and lower front bumper, hood, front part of the front quarter panels, and mirrors) for $600. The guy did a fantastic job. If you live near Fort Worth, PM me for his info.

Yeah ... I know her! She told me about the incident which happended in late January. She ended up getting an M45 instead!









































(just kidding)

 

lol even better for her!!!

 

that was actually believable cuz i got my cat in late january! hahaha

 

Guess I could have thrown in Miller Infiniti as the dealer too?

 

Back on topic ... another clear bra suggestion for those considering it ... the XPEL kit has door cup patterns too. They are very helpful as finger nails easily surface scratch the paint in the door cups when pulling on the door handles.

 

My infiniti dealer charges $395 for tint! Wow! their cost is $90 bucks! And 200 for a pinstripe.. cost is $25 bucks!

 

Absolutely, good point, good advice. I clearly dropped the ball in that regard.

Interesting that your dealer installs. My dealer had to send the new G35 to an installer 20 miles away. He gave me a loaner while it was being done & cautioned me that if I didn't return it with the same amount of gas in it, they would charge me X amount. But they did not replace the gas they burned in my G by taking it to the installer & back.

I simply got mixed up with a really lousy dealer.

 

Don't you just hate people who F*&$ over other people. People like him/her give car dealers a bad name. I learned a long time ago from a friend of mine, who was the finance manager at a Ford dealership on how they robbed/clobbered people over the head. Car phones, under coating, loan points, etc. Some bimbo tried to sell me the extended warrant on the rims/tires. Just give me the F@#$%$# car and i will purchase any extras on my own, like my window tint.

#1 Rule Do not buy anything from a dealer except the car.

I would post a nice write up on Craigslist or where ever to tell people how this dealer operates. Just tell the truth and you can not be held liable.

 

mission viejo but miller woulda been fine too! haha

yes those door handle cup bras are very nice! i just noticed how my door handle cup has a gazillion scratches on it. ugh!
