Cool Finally, got it

Drive home an Antharacite Auto NAV today. Just unbelievable
Everything's good, no rattle.... (maybe because the mileage is only 56? )
My salesman does not even how to link my phone (Sony Ericsson S710a) with the car, then I was able to do it 10mins ago. The poor guy did not know I have to use the phone to search for BT device in order to synchronize... Keep saying, Why it doesn't see your phone ..... weird....
First phone was unsuccessful because my wife knows that's me, so she didn't even bother answer it
Thank you all, you guys have been/ and are really helpful.......
See you around ;-)

Is it visible when you're looking at it? Is there a line or anything? I've got the anthracite too and don't want it to show. Thanks

people tells me I have a big ass scrath on my car. I will tell them it's not a scratch, it's clearbra.

most people will not notice it if you clean the seams of wax residue.

Learn from us, grasshopper.....Honda paint is weak. You'll soon have chips. Clearbra reduces the severity of said chips. Therefore....git 'er done! Cost is around $600 most places, but it will save you a great deal of trouble.

I can see mine at certain angles, but don't care as long as it's doing its job. Most, you can't. Pics here....

IMO, it is one of the better investments you can make to protect the front end and you'll not regret it. I've had it on 18 months and no visible chips. As far as visibility, from 3-5 ft out, you'll never notice it. If you're viewing from rear to front, yes, you'll see the seam. If, from a cosmetic standpoint, is what's bothering you, then maybe it's not for you. Maybe you need something like this: Spray-on Protection Bra.

Look like I'm going to get a bra... but my friend just told me that once you apply a bra on the car, you should never take it out because if you take the bra out, you will see a difference on the color of the hood.... Is it correct? So we just leave the bra there forever ? Sound not really encouraging for me
Anybody try to remove the bra themselves ?

Once you put it on, why would you take it off unless it was damaged?

In any case, IIRC, there shouldn't be a significant difference in hood color, especially if you take meticulous care of the car (e.g. Zaino or similar product, etc.).

I've had mine on for almost two years and there is no change in color. Go up a few posts to my previous one to look at the pics of my car.
