Clear Bra? To be or not to be?
#16
I have pulled the trigger and the 3M clear bra is being installed as I type. I will try to post a picture once it has been installed. I also purchased an after market metal chomre grill, to replace the plastic one that comes from the factory. There were a lot of nicks on the plastic one that irriatated me...

[QUOTE=bsw845;6447129]I have 3M clear bra on my car. Its held up pretty good, and most of the time it unnoticeable. Over time you do get some dark smudges of road grime that wont come off
I have it on front and headlites....it also has the dark smudges UNDERNEATH which can not be removed. it has also reduced my lighting. I am thinking of using a air dryer and removing it from headlites... I tried this once on first setting because I was afraid of melting headlites...tedious job and could only remove l/2" around outside....might try hotter setting. many here say when hot you can peel it off. not so, mine seems to have hardened by sun and nothing but scrapping when hot will remove even small areas...if anyone has done this a quicker way I would like to know.

^ not really, u will just see the line where the bra cuts off.
I bought my 07 in 09 and didnt have a claerbra on it, which i regretted not getting since i lived in MA and there was shiot flying all over everytime i was on the highweay. OPnce i got a new bumper, i got the clearbra on it and i am glad i did. so if u have the money to get it, i highly recommend it./
it definitely helps here in the middle east

I have a 3M Clear bra, professionally installed when new on a 08 Ivory pearl G35X and it looks good after 4 years. The front of the mirror covers and the front quarter of the hood along with the front fenders about 8 inches around the lights are covered areas. There is a little "line" at transition but other than that, it looks great. If you look at my photo album, its not even noticeable.
