..there is a guy there, Bill Yerger, that will do a great job on your clear bra.

He does them for Vision in Reading, although I don't recommend Vision themselves.

does 900 sound too high? 30" hood, full bumper, mirrors, headlights and part of the fenders.

somehow i think it should be around 5-600 at the most

When I bought my '04 March '04, I believe his rate (Yerger) was around $500.
Who quoted you $900??

These guys did my PPI when I bought my 911. They did a really good job and seem to know Porsche's.

you are absolutely correct. Dwight was awesome to talk to. HIs prices are way cheaper than the stealership and seem like a good value. They are more expensive than the chain shops, but you get what you pay for.

I will most def be taking my car to him for any work. As long as he does good work, i'll keep taking it to him.

From the sounds of it, he does all the german cars and pretty much anyhing high end.

thanks for the contact

Just spoke with bill, and i will be getting it cheaper than he originally quoted me.
He called me as a follow up this afternoon and asked if i was still interested.
I told him that 900 was a bit more than i wanted to spend. I told him my budget was 6-700 at the most. After a few silent moments, he said that he would do it for 700.

I know it will be at least 30 inches of hood, full bumper, headlights, mirrors and fenders.

He also clays the area where the film will be applied. The service he offers seems to warrant a little more money than some of the others.

Most of the other quotes were around 500-1500. some didn't seem to prep the car as well.

so hopefully in 2 weeks i will have it done and report the hype.

Bill did mine and the job was perfect. I got a full hood, bumper, lights, mirrors and bikini fenders. He threw in a lot of little extras like fuel filler, door handles, air intakes. Everything was done flawlessly. I have put 8500 miles on the car in the 9 months I have had it. I found him a little hard to take personally but he does really care about the quality of his work. I recommend you get the full hood. It looks so much better than having the line halfway up especially if you have a light color.
