Default Car finally here + clear bra pics

After a few months of waiting and occasional fustrations, my new gal has finally arrived. First thing I did was brought it over to the guys at Premier for the clear bra,...and boy am I impressed. I've had the clear bra on other cars before, mainly from the dealership, but none of it even comes close to the work Premier did on my baby. Now that the sun is out, here are some pics.

You can check out some of the many exotic cars that Premier has worked on at www.premiermobilegroup.com. When I brought my car in, they had a blue Murcielago and a Ford GT that were just finished. It was a sight to behold.

Congratulations on the 450H!

The clear bra install looks fantastic. I can't make out any visible lines. Good choice, black is very unforgiving when it comes to chips. My hood and front bumper look like crap right now.

Do they cut around those 4 removable caps on your front bumper leaving them exposed?

Thanks for all of your comments. I'm really loving the car, and the clear bra looks great. I already picked up some chips before the bra was on, so I'm glad it's the first thing I did to the car. The ride of the car feels absolutely phenomenal. It's as quiet as my Prius, but has much more power. It really has been a pleasant experience so far.

was the clear bra pre-cut or custom work? e.g. whole front hood or did you wrap the entire car? Also how much did it cost?

It was custom with wrapped edges. If I'm not mistaken, the mirrors, fenders, and lights were precut. LOL...I'd consider doing the whole car if it was some kind of exotic car,.....but I'm not at that level yet. As for cost, it'll prob be better to call Sam and work something out. It wasn't cheap, but the outcome is justified IMO. Best work I've seen around.

Are you talking about the patronic sensors?
