3M Clearbra vs Venture Guard bra
I'm thinking of getting a clearbra installed on my new 08 G35xS and was wondering which one to get installed?
I've heard that the 3M is good, but can have some yellowing and fringing on the edges, however the Venture Guard bra is supposed to be better?
Whats the consensus here, is that true? Which one is better and do you know of any good installers for each in the DC metro or NYC/NJ areas?
Thanks.

I know that 3M offers a 5 year warranty against yellowing.
I haven't checked out the other's warranty.
3M Warranty:
Q. What is the Scotchgard™ Paint Protection Film warranty?
A. 3M warrants that Scotchgard™ Paint Protection Film, installed after November 1, 2003, will be free of defects in materials and manufacture — including yellowing, bubbling, or cracking — for five (5) years from date of purchase. This warranty does not apply to damage caused by misuse, accident, misapplication, or ordinary wear, nor does it apply to dents caused by physical impact of rocks or road debris.

Venture Shield buys their film from 3m in bulk and then cuts the kits. So basically VentureShield is a 3m material. I have been installing ClearMask for 3years now and it is also a 3m film. It has a glossy finish and the film is warrantied for as long as the purchaser owns the vehicle. You wont have to worry about either yellowing or cracking. The finish only fades at a 3% rate... where some fade at a rate as high as 20%.
The edges lifting are a sign of a poor installation. The installer should hard card those down before he releases the car. Once down they wont lift... unless your really trying to lift them.
Your main concern should be getting a good installer There are a lot of poor installers out there and if your going to spend the money, make sure they are very good at what they do.
If you have any questions, send me amessage and I will be happy to help you out.
