If John takes his there, then you are definitely in good hands!! He has many AMG models and would not take them to a shoddy shop.

they actually took out the whole thing.. that plastic piano black edge on the roof.. the most work is for taking out the antenna fin.. it won't come off - they have to take out a portion of the roof liner to get access to it. they asked me if its ok to have a line (where they need to cut the film so its not going to be like a 1 pc thingy.. its very small and you wont notice it). also some small debris that got in as it was soo windy yesterday even if they closed the doors of the garage.. its not that bad though and i don't mind that small line/cut. they can do the seamless no cut install but they'll charge for a bit more - again, they did a good job for the price they quoted me. not like the other shop that quoted me more than double the amount i paid yesterday.
