Default clear bra?

I've searched this forum about clear bras. and one of our vendors aerotect is supposedly a great clear bra dealer. but the deals i've searched on the forum is old
Is there any other place in socal that does a great job on a clear bra for a great price?

(was excited when i saw the aerotect price. 495 tax and installation included but to find it it was years ago )

I'm pretty sure I'm getting mine done by them after I wash my car. Tried contacting them via their website, but didn't get a response, but I'll call them once I wash my car.

Did you call and ask for a quote? Francisco and Jason do a great job. They even let me take some pics while they were working.

Called aerotech and they gave me a quote of $590 for partial coverage (hood, fender, bumper, side mirrors not sure if I'm missing anything) and $1500 for full coverage. The $490 that people have been getting was already a little steep for me, but I was going to since they were highly suggested. I'll probably just skip on the clear bra for now.

Platinum VIP recommends LuX VIP for Clear Bra. Mike does an amazing job, he gets it right or he does it again. He also has 3M and Ventureshield!

Call him and tell him Platinum VIP sent you

Getting it done right and well is worth it. More so before the paint starts getting chips in it. On light colored cars, no big deal in seeing the chips or air pockets after an application. On a dark painted car...

Scott at Advanced Auto Engineering does an excellent job and is reasonable in pricing. He's located in Alhambra, CA. Phone is (626) 808-7756. I got a 2009 Lexus IS350 done at his shop and am very pleased. Definitely helps to lessen rock chips.

You can see his reviews:
