Question on dealer 'restyle' package

peregrine128 · 10-05-2020, 08:05 AM

Hello!
Making trade from my 128i coupe MT to a very clean 2016 428ix gran coupe with only 16,000 KM. Getting a good price considering mileage and options (premium and performance package). Trade is purely based on needing more space for imminent baby arrival (first).

Dealer is offering a 'restyle package' including Llumar F1 window tints, clear bra for hood and xzilon paint protection with 7 year warranty. Total for all three is $1500 plus HST.

The car is in beautiful condition with low KM and I'm planning to have for many years.

The package of multiple items for this price seemed reasonable. Wondering if anyone would agree/suggest avoiding the dealer package. Thanks!

tints:
- regular = 300ish
- ceramic = 400ish
clearbra:
- portion of fenders + portion of hood = 300-500
- full hood = 700-800
stage 1 paint correction + ceramic coating
- 500-700 starting prices

plus minus 50-100 bucks on each item

their price looks reasonable but you don't know who they are using, so can't really confirm quality of work.

me personally, i'd get it done myself by third party companies after i do my own research.

but you should be okay with their offering as well as long as they can warraty the tints+clearbra.

Thanks for input! I figured with the warranty claims the triple package would be worthwhile. If the xzilon holds up and performs for length of warranty (7 years), I'll be happy. The tint and clear bra seem like high quality product as well. For ease of picking up vehicle with all items taken care of before delivery it makes sense for me.
