Default VentureShield Paint Protection

I took the plunge and scheduled an appointment to have My brand new Prius detailed including machine buffing and polishing then to have the Ventureshield Paint Protection film installed for a total of 600 dollars. Is $600 a good price for a car detail and Ventureshield installation(detail was 85 dollars, venturshield was 499 dollars)? ANy one experienced with ventureshield, how well is it working for you guys?

Personally I think you are wasting your money. A good waxing every so often is more than enough.

when you drive everyday on a major freeway back and forth to work a good waxing more often than not will not doing any good for the type of dings/chips/or scratches you will get especially when about half of that freeway travel is under contruction for bridge/intersection improvements.

paint protection has been extremely worthwhile, and it doesn't have to be expensive. If you want to protect your investment, I seriously recommend you look into paint protection, and if you are on a budget DIY kits are the way to go.
