Default 3M Clear Bra installer

So far I have tryed to contact 6 installers that I located on the 3M and Xpel websights. Everyone is out of business or no longer doing the installs. Wondering if anybody has a good installer to recommend located between Kansas City and Dallas (north to south) and Little Rock and Oklahoma City (east to west). Tulsa, Joplin, Springfield would be perfect. Thanks.

I don't have an answer for you but I feel your pain. Trying to find an installer in the Central/Southern Indiana and not having much luck. (At least one that's not going to rape me ($900 for a front end)).

FYI,

West Suburbs of Chicago:

Plastic Surgeons - Certified Installer
Phone: 630-669-7033
Certified Installer(s): Tim Kirlin

GREAT job and very reasonable - I believe I paid $600 for mirrors, hood, entire front end to the ground, fenders, head lights and fog lamps. And, 8 months and 10,000 mile later am I EVER GLAD I DID.

The "stuff" is dynamite.

I have several marks that are all on 1 piece that costs me $100 to replace - vs $2000 - $4000 to bring the front back to new condition. The paint has NEVER been touched - I did it at 30 days ownership while it was still pristine.

I have found a guy in Springfield, Mo that says he is factory trained/certified and will do the install with pre-cut material on the upper and lower bumper and mirrors for $535. Says he has only done one or two vettes, but has done several Porshes and one Ferrari. Says the install will take about 3 hours. Also says he has been in business for 17 years and will give me a 100% satisfaction guarantee. So....here I go! ....appointment is scheduled.
