Looks real good. Which film did you use? I recently had mine done and used Xpel which is the best right now I've heard, little more pricey than other films but worth the money. I also had my door cups, door edges and trunk clear braed.

I believe ProTect uses Avery Dennison film. Lifetime guarantee, so if it yellows or cracks, they will take care of it.

I'm not sure where you're located, but I am located in the Bay Area, CA and prices here are HIGH. I have 2 friends who owns a clear bra / vinyl shop in the Bay Area so I get the job done at cost for material, free labor. But an ordinary shop in CA will charge anywhere from $1000-$1600 depending on type of material, coverage, and how whether its precut or custom. Hope that helps.
