Question $$ for ClearBra install on NISMO ??

The people who have had clearbra install on NISMO's, how much did you pay for it?? I got a quote of 1381$ for 3M film using Xpel patterns on front lip, bumper, fenders, mirrors. Is this reasonable ??

I had called the local dealers and they guestimated 1200-1300 but it was for 350Z, the bumpers on Nismo's are HUGE. The installer was telling me it only costs 700$ to do a Ferrari and 950$ on Nismo

Thanks
Meka

I just bought the 3M kit for a 350Z which includes hood,fenders,mirrors and bumper for $150.00. The dealer wanted 1000.00. This is one of those high profit low cost items dealers love to sell you. Haven't installed it yet.

How the hell did you buy it for 150$ ?? According to this LINK on Xpel site the patterns alone cost you 1119$ for NISMO

600 from dealer, They have a Nismo cut and it did the front lip, mirrors, and about a foot up the hood or so.

Best investment ever

Got a quote from another local installer and it is 995$ for the Xpel full body kit (bikini cut for hood). That's the best I could do

Getting it installed in a few days.

Check out this site. I just ordered mine on Sunday. I am going to do the install myself (I've done full car decal's before). With the help of an extra set of hands and time, I think it will be ok.

Under $360 shipped to my house. I will post the befores and afters when I do the install.

I did ask my local tint shop what the labor charge would be, he said $300-$350 because it would be a 5 hour job. This is for the full kit you see on the link below.

Hope this helps!

P.S. - If you choose their material, it's a lifetime warranty instead of the 5 year 3M stuff.

Hey orenb,

I've emailed the guy at InvisibleMask to see if he can price match for you. I will let you know what he says.
