Hey bud, $450 isn't too bad to get them installed. There is alot of work to make sure the stripes are applied straight, perfeclty centered, and without any airholes. Its not a short job by any means. That price is fair in my book. Just make sure he plans on striping the spoiler as well, and if he plans on removing the rear medallion, so the trunklid application looks seemless.

+1 I did mine myself, and it took me 5 hours to do. Most installers I talked to say that's about how long it takes them to install as well.

5 hours of someone's time for $450.00 sounds about right to me
