I want to put on a clear bra on the front of the 08 ES350, rear bumper (at least below deck lid), mirror caps and anywhere else that might need it. What should I be looking at for cost (for a pro to install) and what brands would I have good luck with?

Thanks for your help!

In August of 2006, I paid $600 for a 3M install, at the dealer, covering full front with headlights covered too. Hood about 1/4 up, and side mirrors. Warranty for life.

miniz - it kinda depends on where you are in the country. if you're in CA, there are a lot of places so they compete for the work with lower prices.

Check out www.clearbrafilms.com to find a clear bra shop near your area and call around to get the best prices.

Good luck!

There are not a lot of shops that would do this type of thing around where I am. I'm going to call a few, but wanted to know what the price range would be and what brands I should go for or stay away from.

Most of the places here wanted close to 1000 bucks, which is insane. And the ones that were 600-700 only had a 90 day warranty.....

I called a few places. Everyone is using Venture Sheild film. They say it is the best and has a lifetime warranty. Two of large places (that do lots of window tinting) use a computer to cut the film and wanted about $450 for the front bumper alone then just over $400 for the mirror caps, hood and front fenders. They quote me about $450 for the entire rear bumper. I don't think I really have a choice. The paint is going to look horrible if I don't put some protection on at least the front. I think I can live without the rear.

Lexus should do this at the factory.

oh ok.... if you had white i was going to say make sure you get the life time warranty.

I will be getting one with a lifetime warranty no matter what.

Just like buying the car itself, the clear bra price is negotiable. Keep shopping.

If you are anywhere close to Vegas, you can come here and have it done by my buddy---he did my full front end for $300 bucks. He is gonna do Ay-Nako's GS for the same amount too.
