Are you one of these people who leaves the plastic film on your brand new electronics (cell phones, tv's, Camaro's radio display) to protect it, even though it looks like absolute crap?

I will be more than happy to send you some photos of some of my installs... and I promise you that you will not see it.

Alright send me some links cause Ive seen a few and they didnt look right at all...

BUT the big problem is when it finally comes time to take it off... hellloooooo tan lines!

have it and love it!

Paid $900 for the front bumper, 12" of hood and mirrors

Do a search we talked about this six months ago quite extensively. Yes we like ours, need it in Fl for the love bugs. looks good, if 10" of the hood was not done you could not even see it because everywhere else it ends at a seem on the car. Mirrors done too.

Any one know if the clear bra can be applied over the rally stripe decals without issues?

MDCammyMomma · 10-29-2009, 06:43 PM

Would anyone know of a Maryland area installer who does a good job on these clear bras??

just purchased Monday night, Wednesday clear bra installed, looks great. They did not install over the rally stripe. Love the car, will post pic's soon! This car joins her brother in the garage, an 07' A6 3LT Twin turbo vette w/ widebody rear, 542 rwhp / 551 rwt. Life is good!

I'm getting this done on my car when it comes in. Probably the front bumper, mirrors and the entire hood. Doing the entire hood so there is no seam and because of the decals. Not sure if they can do it around the decals or not. Getting it on the bumper, mirrors and partial hood of my wife's Equinox too.

I recommend VentureShield Ultra. 3M has a lot of orange peel in it... so its very noticable on the car. It also has a lifetime warranty versus 5 years for 3M.

I really hope you are joking.

There is no UV inhibitor in the film so when you remove it the paint has faded at the exact same rate as the rest of the car. So no tan lines...

myself but thought I was the only one who noticed.
