If you want to go with 3M, I will pick Invinca-Sheild over Xpel. I have Invinca-Shield on the TL and Xpel on the 350z. They cost about the same; $675 for the TL and $600 for the 350z. My installer said he will definitely recommend Invinca-Shield for the TL. If you take a look at the diagrams of both products, you will see the front bumper of I-S comes in 2 pieces. This makes installation alot easier. In other words, the installer can do a much better job. The I-S also has better coverage.
In terms of value, I think it totally worth it. On top of the protection you get, it also makes washing your car easier. The front bumper is the area with the most dead bugs. With the clear bra, you can scrub harder without worrying scratching the paint.
My point of view is since I've already invested $35k on this car, I don't see why I shouldn't invest another $700 to protect it.

cool, I am thinking the same 35k might as well spend a little money to protect it. I was on the Invinca shield website the other day and the little clip they have of the BMW getting scratched was amazing. they ripped off the film and there was no scratch. to tell you the truth I work on planes and on the A320 rudder there is also a film so when they say they use it on planes they do.
the question I have now is lets say down the road, you remove the film, wouldnt you people think the car would be different colors due to the fact that you are covering some parts of the car. the washing, the sun, the weather wouldnt it after a while be a different color from the car

You can also read about the 3M Clear Bra Test on a S2K and the results were amazing.

The one piece kit is harder to install (that is maybe why your installer wants the easier Invinca-Shield), but looks better afterwards because it has no seam. Of course, if you get a bad install, they will all look like crap.
It all boils down to the quality of installation and the experience the installer has!!!
Good luck in staying rock chip free.
