The gills take the most damage on the 5th gen. I am wanting to clear bra mine in the gills also. Behind the rear wheels dont seem to "chip" as bad as the gills do.

Very nice! Now get that crappy name off your car. They don't deserve free advertisement.

I've got some gill stripes coming in soon, among other things...if I was going to clear bra the gills, should I do that first? Or get the bra after putting the stripes on?

My understanding is that the bra is removable. I need to talk to shop to verify but I understand you should do this before track time and after fixing the paint and sealing the car.

Maybe someone knows for sure.
