That's Rich ( DoingOk). And yeah it's def. not cheap, I was quoted $400 for just the bumper and lip. But my car is lowered and black, so it shows EVERY chip. So it's worth it to me not to have to get the bumper repainted every year.

Most companies charge anywhere from $450-750 for a typical front end job. Mike (the 3M guy) will also give a 10% discount to military guys which is cool. I figured it'd cost me more than that to repaint the front end and it keeps 99.9% of any rock chips away.

Hell at 3 months Ryan you're going to get more scratches on it. Sounds like you need to rock no bumper for 3 months

Sorry man I actually ended up swapping the front back out to Ap1. So I never got the bra.
