Default Clearbra question: Xpel or invisiblemask?

Hello all, I am putting clear bra on my new IS this weekend.
There are 2 installers that are local to me.

One claimed to use the xpel 3M clear bra.
http://www.xpel.com/products/paint.asp

And other one I got from the invisiblemask.com website:
http://www.invisiblemask.com/overview.html

What are the difference? Are they basically using the same 3M Clear Bra kit?
If yes, should I just go with the lowest bidder for the same kit + install?
Thanks!

Go to the website that I posted at the link above.
They have dealer/retailer /installer locator.

Still no reply to the original question...
Anyone has experience with either invisiblemask or xpel?

I quickly scanned both links, and they both claim to use 3M Scothguard film, so material is not an issue.
Rather than choose based on price, I would talk to the manager/owner of each dealer to guage how much experience they have installing on an IS. Based upon the feedback & recommendations from members here, I had my 3M clear bra installed by Aero Tect, since they have done countless IS installs. If both dealers are equally experienced on the IS, then go with the lowest price . . .
