3m seems expensive here in Md . $1300 to cover the car, the quarter panels behind the tires are extra . Is this high ? or in the ball park ?

My installer did everything...lower front, nose, hood and fenders, behind the wheel wells...everything but the rocker panels...for $900.

I found my guy thru the 3m web site as a recommended installer.

Are you guys satisfied with the product, I mean I heard that the line where the protection ends, at times developes yellowish tint after washing and dirt, have you guys experienced this and if so is there an easy solution to get rid of that?
