IMO a Camry should come no other way but beige on beige.  ;D

Peak Camry! These things were 4-door Celicas with Lexus level of refinement. Love the Sport seats here - a stick would make it the ultimate Camry find!

I dig. Didn't they recall this car though because the owners oughta buy something newer by now?

Man that's a great ad for Rust Check. How do they compare against Krown? I got a quote for Krown once, they were asking $499...

Pricewise, you're asking? 

About $200 a pop at Rust Check.

That seems really high. We had Bella's Mazda 3 & my Passport done this past fall for less than that in total for both.

I always thought Krown was about $150 per vehicle.  I should call and see what SK prices are, never had it done.
Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction, and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives.

It's high out here because there is no volume. For the same reason I can get a windshield replaced for $220 out here.

With driver aid calibration, these are on the way up too.

Just called the Saskatoon Krown retailer.  Cars are $150 and trucks/SUVs are $170.  I'd argue that Alberta has much more volume than SK  ;D.  I'd call around dkaz, you'd be getting bent over at $500.

Alberta premium? Things are booming here so hard most services just throw out ridiculous quotes in the hopes that people don't accept them.  ;D

Well which is it?  Too much volume or not enough volume?  For $500 I'd buy the product myself and the sprayer off amazon and go at it on my neighbours driveway when they are away.  Lots of videos out there on applicators and application.  But again, must be able to find a shop with a reasonable price.
