Default Cayenne GTS Clear bra Dealer price

Hello everyone. As the title states, for those of you who have done this to your cayennes, how much did the dealer charge you?? Local dealer has advertised price of $2495 which seems steep compared to 1k I just paid to have done on my 997T

Thank you all for your input

I'm currently having my 2014 CTTS done over at Premier. I am doing a custom wrap on the full front. For a full hood, fenders, bumper, lights, and mirrors it's running about $2500. I also opted for some additional coverage, but that gives you a ball park figure to compare with.

Just last summer, on my 09 S I paid a local shop $320 to cover the leading edge of the hood, fenders, plastic headlight covers, A-pillars and a 3" strip on the roof above the windshield.
I wanted all metal parts to be protected against stone chips and the plastic light covers to prevent fading and clouding (I can always have those small pieces changed for $50 if they dull).

They used 3M Protective film. I just can't believe the outrageous markups that dealers are making

OP, where are you located?

My good friend does all the Ferrari and Porsche dealer clear-bras. He just did my GTS - full hood (no line/seam), full bumper, partial fender, full fender flares, door cups, door edges, partial rear bumper (by tailgate), mirrors, headlights, foglights for a fair price.

Thanks everyone for your input, now I can understand the dealer prices and feel more comfortable making a decision.

ArneeA, I live in NJ so if your friend is local to me I would def use him

HOiYA, if my dealer cover everything you mention, I find that it would be justifyable

I just had my bumper and mirrors coated and had my front side windows tinted to match the others, at the dealer for $738.

Try Nelson at Clear image ww.clearimageent.com/contact_us.html

He has done all my cars and does excellent work in the past at reasonable prices. I have most of my CTT wrapped and it has saved the paint many times.

I tried to call this comapny clearimage and all I got was a busy cell phone with no return call. Then later tonight some guy calls me back just to put me on hold and then tells me he cant talk to me and would call in 15-20 min. Its been two hrs and no call back.
Anyway, if this is a reflection on their labor I rather stay away
Cobalt thx for your help though
