Who’s doing the Xpel? I see Northtown Lexus and Rainbow Glass are authorized dealers/installers? I’m interested in having the front end of my vehicle done.

Congrats Sam!

He didn’t do a good job on my front bumper and a recent GTR over the summer he completely fucked I heard. However he did come back to redo mine several times but I basically had to beg him. I’m not 100% happy with the job he did but for the price I paid I can’t complain. He did put knife marks in my front bumper as well. His detail work is really good but that’s all I can really say.

Thanks for the input. He’s supposed to do Xpel tomorrow.

I get that and that’s why I’m not too upset about it but I didn’t expect cuts in my actual bumper; kind of defeats the purpose. Also he shouldn’t have claimed he could do the work if he couldn’t. It is what it is.

Congrats on getting rid of the Touareg.

Also a Big :tup: to @kingsario. I picked up an XC90 for the wife this summer, and after A LOT of BS from Audi Financial services on our trade in, Russ made it all happen.

Just curious why you wouldn’t wait till spring to get a detail on a car I’m assuming you’re going to DD in the salt and muck for the next few months?
