Have another R bumper (new) that I'm getting painted soon, and I want to protect it from rock chips this time around.

How much can I expect to spend to have someone install some stone protection film? I'm sure it'll vary on thickness and quality, but what's a good ballpark? A local guy gave me an estimate of $350 for the bumper with a 7 year parts and labor warranty.

I feel like 3M makes a clear protective film for cars

They do, but there are costs to installation. I'm wondering what I can expect to pay for installation. I'd prefer having someone install it that can warranty their work and the parts, instead of doing it myself and trying to figure it out for a few hours.

$300 bucks sounds a little high. I was thinking around $200 or so if you brought your own film
