How to get X-Pel?

I know there is a clear bra set for our cars by a company or product called
X-Pel & 3M, I believe. I wanted to know if there was a way that I could just buy a small sheet of it and cut it to the shape that I need. The reason is because I need it to protect the foglight lens on my g/f's car. Two lenses have been already cracked due to rocks flying up from the highway.

If anyone knows how I can get this material, please give me the heads up. Thanks in advance.

-Fred

You can buy precut kits for most cars. You can also buy universal sheets and use them for whatever. I'm planning on getting some long rolls for the door sils. If you plan on doing a clear bra, I'd get it professionally done because it's rather involved.
Click on the Bulk Film or Universal for your needs.

DarkDJ - I bought the Lexan from NYDesi80 a couple weeks ago, but I've been so busy that I haven't been able to finish the project. I actually did one already and the Lexan fit perfectly. SO far, no fogging or condensation. Hopefully, I'll get to do the other side this week so that I can finally put the HID's in the fogs.

Rockblocker - The X-pel site sells a sheet of 12"x12" for lamp protection. How hard is this material to cut? I only really need enough material to cover to foglight lenses.

Thanks guys.

You can cut it with a sharp knife or blade pretty easily. It probably wont be perfectly rounded. If you want a set of pre-cut I can get you that for $13.95. Dont know what the 12 x 12 costs but that is more than you need i am sure of it. let us know
