Completed Clearbra/Tint/Baby-proofed!!! :)
With a new baby on the way in less than 2 weeks, I made sure I completed "baby-proofing" the inside, as well as completed clear bra and tint... Now I can relax, and be stress free from worrying about paint chips on the highway, and baby puke on the seats... lol
Clear bra complete: (3M)
hood
fenders
door pockets
a pillar
mirrors
lower rockers (behind front wheel, ahead of rear wheel, behind real wheel)
Tint complete: (Llumar)
all 3 rear windows, at 15%
Interior:
black towels (to blend in), attached behind both front seats, in front of rear seats.
^ (you guys may laugh at this, but this being our 2nd kid, I learned to protect/cover all that is sacred inside from "unexpected" blowups)
Next mods:
Clearbra front bumper (2 weeks from now)
Hood struts
Invisicord detector power cord install
Independent fog lights control
Hoen fog lights
Enjoy pics
Even this close, you can't see the clear bra... the guy doing it is awesome.. it's our second car we have covered.
And now you can see the lines:
This is probably my favorite clear bra location... my wife and her keys/nails... Again, I learned from experience.
And now the sacred interior, protected from infant-ammo... lol. Target shopping is a must...

Looks terrific! I too have a an infant and a toddler so I am NOT laughing at all at your setup. My almost 3 year old will kick the back of the seats so we've got protectors on our other car, a Mazda CX-9. And once I get my TSX Wagon, I may need to go your route :-)

Haha thx man... Hey, it works. No stains on my new soft leather

don't forget the seat back protector and Prince Lionheart seat protector. I went through the same thing on my SS. The leather looks brand new underneath. Check out Amazon.

The leather in my CX-9 is firm and I have not needed any protector for the base for my infant. The leather on my 2004 leather is softer in the back and there are now stretch marks on it where the toddler seat makes contact...which lead me to get the Prince Lionheart for the SUV.

That... is.... awesome! At first I couldn't tell where the lines were where the clear bra was applied till I went down some more and the lighting/angle made it stand out more. You can tell this was done professionally and it came out great. Definitely agree with the interior. It may look silly to others, but they can gtfo and walk. When you have young kids there's spills, throwup, food, and the one that kills it all is when they have the runs and its up their back, carseat, and runs down their leg (had that happen to me one time when my ex gf brought along her 2 yr old nephew and my parents stuffed him with mac and cheese.) Dont even get me started on apple juice. I have an 8 mo old girl, so i know exactly what you mean. Tori's a beautiful lady btw.

Great job!! You got all the important spots outside and your interior looks pretty frikken baby proofed
#10
a) the back of the front seats
b) the seatback of the rear seats
c) the entire bottom seat of the rears
So it's pretty much covered. These Lionheart protectors do look beefy tho. Sounds like you guys are happy with it? I might still get these as added protection

Thanks man! Yeah, I was wondering if I missed any spots, but I think I got it all captured!

I've used the towel method before but they tend to smell funky after a while so I just have to keep replacing them. Oh and they shed as well. Other than those minor things, they work great.
#16
As for shedding, what kind of towels do you get? Don't get the cheap kind LOL. I got higher quality towels from Target (I know they're not high-high end, but they're decent) and they don't shed, or bleed during washes.... they work great. We just wash them when they get, how do you say, "funky"

I hate to say it, but some of my friends are just as bad as toddlers sometimes, especially drunk. I keep spare towels in the trunk along with emergency cleanup gear and leather cleaner just in case. Even then, I still have to remind them not to put on or take off jackets right next to the car (one kid actually nicked the side panel and I have to get the rust inside removed and completely repainted and clearcoated, $600 down the drain...) but I do like your idea on the clear bra for this. How much did it cost you if I may ask?
