** Please note that you should be incredibly scared of a quote this low. While creeping a little bit under $1,000 is typical, this price is not profitable meaning: there is a bait and switch to come, or the business will cease to exist shortly. Materials alone (no other overhead factored in) will run $250-$300 for a sedan size vehicle. Ceramic pro silver typically runs as the most expensive package on the market at about $1,500 (this is across all of WI and Indiana – we used to install Ceramic Pro).
