I think this is WAY EXCESSIVE in pricing!!!
and this does not even include installation.
Anyone know where to find this product at a much better price?
Thank You

Actually that doesn't sound toooo out of line to me. The material itself is extremely costly...around $15 to $20 per square foot. I had a local tint shop put the 3M "ClearBra" film on the front third of my '03s hood and fenders, on the head/turn lamps, and around the grill (but not the grill cross bars). I did not have any put on the mirrors or the bumper. Took the installer nearly 5 hours just to do that much (the material is very difficult to work with as well as being expensive).
Total charge was $350 for material and installation. It would have been another $400 to have the front of the bumper protected.
The good news is the film is nearly invisible (even on my white truck) and it really does a great job of protecting the paint from flying rocks and sand.
