So since folks with BMW's are getting there stuff from sticker city, im guessing it wouldnt be too bad if i place it on mine.

Yes some places do sell for close to a grand, ie a place here in the boonies sell it for 1300 installed. That includes basicly the whole front clip.

Ill wait till what other people say before i make a descion.

Thanks guys!!

Pricing for paint protection can vary quite a bit, depending on installer experience and coverage. The more the coverage, naturally the cost goes up incrementally. Installation is the key to a good installation with any type of craft based specialty. Expect newer installers to give out lower pricing. This is how they generate experience.

My VentureShield installation cost me around $600.

It included:

Extended Hood
Mirrors
Front Bumper
Rocker Panels
Headlights and Foglights

My guy will sell precut film cut from a plot cutter for MB and any type of car if you want to install it yourself. Not as cheap as eBay but a better film indeed.

Stickercity has them for the amg bumper... i think

This is for the "sport" bumper

http://www.stickercity.com/store/pro...at=2906&page=1

And this is what they have for the AMG bumper

http://www.stickercity.com/store/pro...at=2907&page=1

Hopefully they match up. Just don't know which one to choose.

Yeah but how does it withstand rocks? That's my question. With Ventureshield/3M/LLumar they all have warranties regarding rock chips.
