Default Best Clear bra?

So guys. Have any of you put clear bras on the front of your LS?

IF yea, then what kind do you have?? Im trying to avoid ones that will yellow out, but am not sure of where to buy a good one.

The shop wants 500 installed, cant tell me the brand, but thinks its 3M. Any suggestions?

I have a couple of frineds on the NELOC section here who have the clear bra, but they have not had it on very long so I dont know about the long term effects. Greenvy2K and KevinGS are the one I am referring to. I think they have the 3M brand but I can tell you that you can hardly tell at all, even up close, that it is even on there.
This is Greenvy2K's car,, we all know it, though it is rarely seen LOL!!!


Price doesnt sound too bad, especially for a quality job. It is atually one of the cheapest prices I have heard. Like I said,, you may want to contact Greenvy2k to ask some questions.

My front end is not sagging yet, but I might be interested in a clear training bra.

I have 3m , i choose them for being a producer of products with lots of R&D .
Mine is 2 years old and it still is holding up . 3 stone chips but no yellowing or peeling.

Does the stone chip only take it out of the clear bra or did it actually damage the paint underneath? Very curious about this.

The paint under is usually fine although one was a large rock and it nicked the paint , nothing touch up paint could not fix.
