Yes I have a guy that works for autobhandit that did mine and he does side jobs also. I can get it done for you a like $350. Ill PM you his number if your interested. Let me know. He does all my cars. Did my 330xi as well. I see you went with the X Smart move.

Please note clear bras usually cost about 600-800. This guy will come to your house and everything. Lifetime warranty also. Will charge $350.

Yes, please PM me his info. I got a few quotes and $595 is the best I got.

Oh yeah, I did go w/ the xi route. It was a very tough choice, thanx for your input on that one too!!

Can someone recommend any good dealers/installers in the Riverside/Ontario/Rancho Cucamongo, California areas for a clear bra? Riverside BMW says $850 from their own dealer but I want to shop around and get my own quotes and hopefully get one for less.

cheers...

GO TO Modern Image in san diego they are by far the best.

If you own a white BMW then don`t get 1 yet cos it will make the car look very ugly in a few months time, it will turn yellow.

Absolutely not true. I have had the clear bra on my white and black mercedes for years. Works like a charm and the plastic they use on my cars have 3 layers. One of them is a clearcoat layer. You cant even see the bra even on the black car, only when its dirty and on the white car you dont see a thing. If you paid for cheap for a shitty product then youll get a crap outcome but if you buy the right thing and dont install it yourself youll be alright. You get what you pay for. There is no bug with the clear bra here in the US. Maybe in Hong kong but definately not here.

Is that worthy to get the extend hood cover which is 150 dollars more than standard? Do xpel dealers install with 3M bra bc I will take mine to xpel shop next week, and they said they use 3M. Should I trust him?

best bet is go there and have a look at the clear bra and the back should say 3M so get them to show you the box or some kind of prove

[gashero]

I am in naperville, so can you pm me also.

should i get the extended one or it is just waste of money? standard 12" cover may be just enough

I don`t have this but I know itis good for not getting stone chips on the car which I have over 30 of them on my car.
I will wait for the price to come down abit and then get it cos it cost more than painting the panel in HK

[XxLancaxX]

3M sucks. Their crap turns yellow. You need to get it done professionally
I have a guy that does it. He did dalex's car also and his cost is $250. He uses the top notch film.....

if your car is new and no stone chip then get the extended, but I get the extended 1 anyway cos no point to get 12" waste of money
