3M Xpel for headlights - installation cost

I am planning on getting 3M Xpel installed on my headlights, fog lamps and mirrors... and wondering what is a reasonable price (including installation). I own a 3G TL.

Could you share how much you paid to have it installed. ? Would you recommend any installer in the Bay Area (among those listed on the xpel site) ?

i am thinking i could also get my windows tinted while i am at it.

Thanks a ton... seems like the installation is straightforward. I got a quote of $160 for this installation. The kit appears to cost about $60. $100 for this job seems insane.

I will tell you how my expel lens covers on the headlights are peeling at the top and the fog lamps are blistering. Contacted xpel and they are shining me on will not use again. Crap product

I used 3m clear bra material on my headlights and fogs. They have about 3 years on them now with no signs of wear.

Not that anyone cares, but I was posting to the other bra thread and realized that I really can't remember how long I've had it. Either way, it's held up well!
