Ask the Museum? And/or Bowling Green BBB.

I had my C5 Z06 paint corrected, PPF covered and ceramic coated at Auto Armor. They are expensive, but IMO you get what you pay for. My car looked better than new when I got it back, and Rudy kept me in the loop with progress updates (videos and phone calls) the entire time they had my car.

As far as being in cahoots with the museum, I guess if you mean paying them for renting a shop space from them, then yes.
I believe I remember reading that they also offer a discount to cars that are museum delivered.

Cahoots?! Lol. If so, that's a good thing as NCM only represents the best of the best! Surely, they would not be in "cahoots" with any company that produces subpar results.

My C8 below was fully wrapped, and ceramic coated by Auto Armor and both Rudy and Kat offer great customer service and perfection! Can't say enough good things about them and their business and products offered.

Their shop is at the track and not the museum. Unsure but perhaps their space is not rented through the museum but more likely the track. Regardless....I highly recommend them. Keep in mind that black is unforgiving and shows everything....including PPF cut/pattern lines yet the jobs they perform on C8's they proudly displayed mine for all to see as you have to have a very fine eye to note any on this black C8.

Their booth/display and my C8 at the museum a couple of years back during a large anniversary event:

Auto Armor did my PPF and ceramic in September. Rudy and crew do a fantastic job, tucking edges, etc. The quality is second to none.

They do offer a Museum Delivery discount. Better yet, now you can arrange for Auto Armor services pre-delivery. Ask Shane about having PPF and ceramic before your delivery date at the Museum. (Before GM approved Auto Armor for pre-delivery, we had to hang out in Nashville for a few days while Rudy worked on our car. But, Nashville is a fun town.)

Auto Armor is all about quality and customer service.

Auto Armor has been used by many of the CF members and also of the MECF members. All of which have reported a very high level of satisfaction and professionalism.
