Cost of Installing a "Clear Bra"?

Can anyone tell me what is a fair price for purchasing/installing a "clear bra" on the front of a 996?
Thanks in advance.

There was a guy in our shop who had it hand done by a proffesional.......said it cost him 1600, but thats one of those people who has to have it done perfect...like insanely perfect and he doesn't care about the cost, he had the front third of the car done and made stone guards with the stuff too.........should be a hell of alot cheaper if you do it yourself

I purchased material on line and installed myself on 1990 911 C2. It took me acouple of hours and well worth the effort, as I commute 6 hours one way each week and the stone chips had become a serious issue. Frankly not all that good looking however.

I just had a local shop do the front of the mirrors, bottom 18" of the hood, down the front of the fenders, and around the headlights with 3M material. It looks perfect! They charged me $199. I'm very satisfied. (I probably would have made it look amateurish.)

If I had had the entire front bumper done (not yet, because a small repair is first needed), it would have been another $324.

I had a local pro do my install (entire hood, entire front fender, wheel well arches, mirrors, headlight surrounds, etc...) cost was around $1,000.
