Clear bra installed

Just got the clear bra installed. This stuff is worth the $$. Here are some pics. Got it install at Clearchoicedetailing.com right outside of Philly. Thanks people for recommending it to me!

So the clear bra is just a lot of clear coats on the car or what?

^^ no, it's actually a 3M film that they put on certain areas of the car, instead of putting the black leather bra. You can barely see the edge of the clear bra. It stops minor rock chips and such.

It was around $700. I got the extended kit where it covers around (halfway) the vent. Some patterns stop way before the vent, while others cover all around the vent. I also had it put on over my headlights which cost more, as well as the whole front bumpers.

Be careful waxing and claybaring!!! I have one on my 96 Cobra and if you wax over top of it it is a pain in the *** to get the wax out from behind the line where the film starts/stops. Furthermore if you claybar and accidentially hit the edge it will pull the film up and it will look like hell where said incident happened. I would suggest if you plan on waxing or claybaring use some blue 3m painters tape and tape off any edges where wax may build up behind the edges and keep the clay away from the edge as well! They do work great though! Enjoy!
