Brian

Its a bit spendy but consider the time, effort & re-do's of making your own

It fits well & looks good. Its JDM including the Jap instructions which are useless unless you speak it The install is straight fwd. The packaging is very good including a plastic protective sheet on the show surface
You just need a pop rivet gun

Well after 6 years my nose can breathe! The car got a clear bra installed at the dealer back in '06. Been great over the years, but lately it was turning a "tad" yellow-ish...

So what was underneath? Absolutely PERFECT paint as if it just rolled off the boat from Japan. It was like unwrapping a brand new car...





I'm sure I'll miss it when I hear a slight stone tap on the front end...buuuuut for now I'll enjoy brand new paint ;-)

Is it possible for you to post photos? I've always wondered if the clear bra causes a tone difference in paint colour from the areas which were not covered by the clear bra.

I have a clear bra on my 350z (it helps with those stone chips), but I've always wondered if I take it off, if the paint will be totally off from areas not protected by the clear bra since those areas are affected by the sun differently.

I can take some close-up's...but honestly I'm not sure the camera will pick up any differences...

After taking off the bra, I immediately cleaned and waxed the nose. The paint underneath the bra is a little more shiny with no swirl marks...but there's not really a tonal difference at all.

Perhaps it depends on the paint color, though...

Yeah I would love to see pics, do you have a WW or RR RS? I can imagine it would show up a lot more on colors like RR or TB, just due to the way they are affected by the sun.

Thanks...yeah maybe my originally hosted pics didn't show up. But the WW above is mine. If the lighting is right, I'll take some close ups later today...
