Ghost Shield Protective film (clear bra)
Should be getting this on Monday, its like the 3M clear bra. The guy quoted me 595 installed and its alot cheaper than the quotes I've been getting for the 3m stuff. Just wondering if anyone has experience with it? My uncle has it on his truck and boat and seems to think it is better stuff than the 3m.

Haven't heard of them. Take lots of pics, I'm interested to see how it turns out.

Just keep in mind that you get what you pay for. It might look great now, but will it discolor in a few years, or peel? What is the warranty? From my research, 3M is expensive, but it's the best. Check your uncle's truck for any discoloration and ask to read through his warranty. You'll probably be fine, but it can't hurt to check. Just my two cents.

This is what a local company uses in my area. They do pretty much nothing but high end cars. The Lexus dealership uses them exclusively.

I use either 3M or Venturesheild. the latter tends to yellow faster, but works well. |

so i just got the ghost shield done today and i must say they did a great job. took some pics but most didnt turn out that great. cost me $595 out the door they did everything in the front, fog light, headlights, mirrors front part of front fenders, and i had them do right under the door handle where finger nails can tend to scratch the paint
see not that great, i did however make it darker so you can see the line but it still is not that noticeable on CGM and a darker one keep in mind the pictures were taken is direct sunlight that why i made the copy darker on the last 2 pictures instead of having it go straight across the lower quarter of the hood i had them cut the middle section out as i have my factory rally stripes and the film would of just looked weird if i installed over the stripes and it would of looked even worse if i had them outline the stripes with it since the film is thicker than the stripes the guys were mobile and came to me took them about a good 3 hrs to do the job, they had total me they do anywhere is la county, ventura county, and some other places near them. just pm me if you want some contact info

A friend of mine has been isntalling the clear bra for quite a few years. All the way back to when Xpel and 3M were one company. He said he refuses to use any film other than the 3M stuff because it is the longest lasting clearest film available.
