Questions about clear bra

The pics in the link will show lines from 2 feet AND it should be noted that I took pictures with a flash and the light highlighted the edge of the bra. Otherwise, you really can't see it. People walk around it all the time and no one has ever said, look a line.

Lastly, I recommend Venture Shield over 3M. VS has lifetime warranty vs 3 year for 3M.

I had actually already seen your thread, and that video definitely helped out.

The deal with my stripes is that as far as I know, they're matte and not glossy, which means I'd either have to:

-Do the whole bumper and hood and have the stripes on the hood not match the stripes on the rest of the car, or...
-Do only the bumper and risk my hood getting nicked up, or...
-Do the bumper and part of the hood, and have the front part of the stripes be glossy and the rest of the hood be matte, which seems like it would stand out the worst of the all of my options.

What have you guys done in this situation? I definitely want a clear bra, I just don't know what parts of the car to apply it on. I'm not worried about the lines of the bra as much as it making the stripes look ridiculously different.

Thanks so much all of you, I really appreciate the responses.
