3M protective film in Seattle / Bellevue area?
New owner of a 2008 Flint Mica RX400h with 12,000 miles. The front end is not 100% pefect but don't want it getting any worse.
Got a good deal considering the low miles but wasn't a steal. But we got the exact color combo and options.
The dealer I bought it from (Definitive) said he can get it done for $899. That seems high. Any of you guys get this done and how much??
Thanks!

Hi Jeff, nice to see a fellow CL member posting! Wow you been on here back since 02! Props!
Nice buy, you can't go wrong with a 400h, speaking as a fellow owner also. Is that price for a full front end wrap? I have full engine hood, fenders, mirrors, bumpers, grill, headling, and fogs all wrapped. It's all done great, but I had it done back when I was in SoCal. If that price is for a full front end 3M clear bra wrap go for it. But, if it's half the hood only, it seems alright judging for the stealership charging you more than a grand for a barely half a hood. Accutint, metropolitan, and other shops may do it. But you might want to call various places to compare costs. Just my 2 cents!

He ended up going the 1/4 hood, bumper, headlights, mirrors, door edges. No grille or fogs.
But he did a pretty good job.
But man, I found some rock chips like 1/2 up the hood. what the hell?

Where you guys going? I havent paid more than $600 for half a hood, headlights, mirrors and full bumper with a lip. It was completely covered from edge to edge.
Jeff92, I too had a rock chip close to the washer nozzle after the clear bra. I wished I did the full hood
afterwards. Grrrr
