Best Xpel Installer in SF Bay Area?

Apologies in advance if this has already been asked, but my search yielded nothing.

I would appreciate a recommendation for an Xpel Ultimate installer in the Bay Area. The Xpel site lists quite a few and I'd like to narrow the list to those that do quality work at a fair price.

Also, initial quotes have been in the $2200 - $2400 range. Is that the market price here?

Thanks.

Elite Auto Films in Fremont did a good job on my M2. They did ceramic tint, xpel on about half my car, and ceramic pro on the entire car. I chose them because of the great reviews and it had all 3 services in house. Very clean facility full of top tier cars.

Thanks!

Thanks for the pointer to Elite.

Does ~$2300 sound about right for hood/front bumper/mirrors/rockers?

I would also do headlights. 2.3k is realistic... Elite isn't cheap but if it costs more than that it shouldn't be much more.

OTHER OPTION IS OMEGA WERKS IN PLEASANTON
Vince has a great rep and is a genuine lover of cars....I am scheduled for March as he is so booked. On pricing, that seems a bit steep unless that includes window tinting and/ or ceramic pro application (which includes a prep detail).
