does not matter what ppl say, you will see the line of the clear bra. I saw one in person and I can tell immediately that the car had clear bra (or shall we call it visible bra).

If you go to my site and go under Gallery you can see all kinds of pictures of what the bra looks like. In most cases the line going across the hood is not that noticeable. However, it really depends on the film's clarity, color of the car, and how it was installed. For instance, silver is going to be the most noticeable where as black the lines are not seen at all but perhaps the film is a little more noticeable. Any color in between the film looks awesome and is hardly notiecable.
I've seen some cars where the film has gone bad or was poorly installed and yes, it is noticeable. I also sell 3M Xpel kits that can be viewed on my site. In most cases these kits are not the DIY type kits. If you look at the patterns there are stars underneath the kit. 1 being easy and 5 being difficult. Anything above a 3 I would not attempt yourself. Hope this helps. www.autopaintguard.com |

5 star for the bumper wow! The bumper pieces are very hard and I spent like 2 hours just getting it to fit right. What I needed was another person to help me out. Your prices seem cheaper than Xpel? I haven't compared but if so where were you when I bought my kit? ![]()

Sorry... The prices on my site are 30% off. I use Xpel patterns and in most cases 3M film. I also have videos on the 330i bumper too. That probably would have helped you out a lot.
For the people that already have the bra on. Some tips on keeping it new. 1. Wash and Wax on a regular basis. 2. I prefer to use the New ICE polish, which is a clear liquid wax. It doesn't leave any residue etc which is a huge benefit for the bra since it won't leave any residue on the lines. 3. If you do have residue on the lines mainly on the hood, you can take a damp cloth and wipe away. 4. If you happen to scratch the bra, use rubbing alcohol which will take away all scratches. 5. Don't go over 160mph, it will fly off. ![]() Thanks |
