Anyone have a clear bra installed on their new 2016 LX in white? I was thinking on it, don't really like to have a clear bra on the car which have an ugly line, but if do the full hood option will cost twice

I don't think a big car will get rock chips that easy than sedan right?

Must have. Just did it for my LC. Another new LC owner mentioned they have a chip already and paint seems soft. I did half bra and you can barely notice the line on the hood.

Any picture?

I had it on my GX before, very noticeable to me, because I'm very picky lol

Did you install it at the dealer?

Some clear bra brands can be tucked over the edge to reduce the lines and edges. But of coarse it will cost more. I got my 2014 GS clear bra'd with Premium Elite Shield with rolled hidden edges and it looks fantastic, paid about $1900. This include full front bumpers, both front fenders, Full hood, headlights, foglights, lexus emblem, door rear view mirrors and both A pillars. It would probably cost more for your LX because its a much bigger vehicle. All prices can be negotiated. My installer wanted $2500 but I haggle them down to $1900.

I had installed it locally by a great shop. He uses Xpel Ultimate. He did bumper, mirrors, headlights, half fenders and hood for $850. The hood line is the only place where you can tell that I have something on. All edges are folded over so it looks great. For $50 more I got front side widows tinted as well. Very satisfied.

Don't know any local shop that is good... around $1K ish for dealer to do half hood and mirror fenders; but full hood is like $2K+

This is more frustrated then buying the car itself
