Clear Bra?

Does anyone have their CL clear bra'd? if so, how hard was it and do you still have it on or do you like it?

Also ... anything out there I can spray on my car to keep it from getting less dusty less fast?

... like PAM or something?

i have clear bra but it was installed by a shop. still LOVE it!

i believe the pam is only for helping bugs not stick to the front of your car. there is no way that that stuff will deter dust.

hey bro

how much did the clear bra cost you? I know I can do it by myself, but will probably come out looking bubbly and wrinkly.

How much was the total cost at the shop?

And also, what is the main purpose of the bra? is it to protect from scratch?

Also, can you notice/ feel the difference of a bra/ no bra? no, not that kind of bra, the car bra!

The main thing is it protects against stone chips. I looked into doing it when I bought my car in 02, but decided not to pay the bucks. It was quoted around $500 by several places then too. The material is only around a hundred or so and I thought $400 was a bit much for two hours or less of labor.

its all labor, the material is not worth that much to be honest. they probably use the same procedure as applying it onto ipods and such, except they cut it perfectly. i don't think its that hard, but u do need experience to do it, it deos take awhile trying to get it perfect.
