Default Ordered XPEL today

Bit the bullet today and ordered XPEL installation through Shane at the museum for my front bumper and mirrors. Also had splash guards shipped from Fichtner Chevrolet to museum for installation. When April 4th comes I should have her ready for the drive from Kentucky back to Texas.
