XPEL site has the price tags for all the items. Who's interested in may like to take a look.

I was thinking of these in April, but couldn't find the vendor doing it for me with the right price...

I'm talking about complete kits PLUS installation. This is something that should be installed professionally. If you are getting all this for $360 then you are getting an incredibly low price (I would be suspicious about this...).

The shop that the local Lexus dealer uses priced it at 475 installed. It was 245 for less coverage( can't remember what that included). The shop that I am going to uses the same film ( clear shield by solar gard). They tinted my windows and did a great job. They are giving me a lifetime guarantee. He told me that they pay 1000.00 per roll for the film. I think he said 1.00 per foot. If anyone has used clear shield or knows that it is an inferior product please let me know before friday. However, this is the film that the Lexus dealership uses.

Anyone who cuts their own can give you a much better price than the kits. You should be fine; they usually know what they're doing much more then the simple kit applicators do as well.
