Clear Bra
anyone have this install?
or some other type of protection for the front bumper? hood? also pricing? |
I got a quote from a small shop that wants $550 to install it. I need to call my dealer to see how much they charge as a comparison. I have never used a clear bra but am considering it in the next couple of weeks (due in the port around Dec 12).

I purchased a package deal from the dealer with tint and interior protection. I would recommend installing it as it has protected my hood/front fender from potential small stone chips. I didn't install it on my SUV and I could noticed the difference with smaller chips on the hood.

I had it done here in Atlanta. Was about 600. They used xpel ultimate. It is extremely durable and quite a bit thicker than the 3m clear bra on my old car. It inspires confidence. They did hood for about a foot, fenders, mirrors, behind the door handles and a strip across the rear bumper. I highly recommend getting it done. The installer cut the bra from a sheet... Xpel has patterns already for our car and the fit is incredible.

Can you see this film at all when installed or is it completely invisible?
Do you see a line where the film ends? |

You can see the film edge with the xpel ultimate because it's so thick. It's a tradeoff though as I think it provides better protection. Even so, from 3 feet away it's invisible.

I'm thinking of going with the Xpel Luggage Kit to protect the rear bumper fascia when loading/unloading. $50 for the kit and $75 installed. I'll take picts if I do it.
