Paint Protection Film (Headlights) Group Buy

Would anyone be interested in a group buy for 3M Scotchguard Light Protection Film for headlights, tailights, sidemarkers, even turn signals......?
We offer several different colors of films for the vehicle's on todays roads and highways. In most cases you will have the option of choosing which color you would prefer.(Clear, Yellow, Blue or Smoked.) Some states do not allow colored film on headlight/tailight assemblies, so you may want to "proceed with caution". If there's enough interest to make this worth everyones effort, lets make it happen!

Normal pricing is around $50.00. Obviously, the more orders, the greater savings. So, with that said, lets just take a quick pole for interests sake.....

Thick! We're talking more then twice what the paint film is.This is due to alignment factors. At 20mils, it can withstand a stone 1" in diameter at 120 mph.
Theres not any cheaper insurance for your car, and its warranted from my supplier, for the life of the car.
You dont have to have an Acura folks, this is for anyone listening, who drives any type of car.

Since I have it already (was part of the PPF package), consider the cost of a headlight assembly vs the inexpensiveness of this product. For me, pretty much a no brainer . . . .

I'll buy, if you know the product works, and can be taken off.

Reports of clearbra failure from fog light heat from out tsx. Don't remember hearing about problems with headlights, don't know which generate more heat.

Would like it on the tail lights too.

This stuff pre-cut?

Is this a different product than clear bra?

Same material, just thicker. 3M/Scotchguard still has the hold on PPF. They have even improved it over the last 18 months.
All computerized cuts. There no universal fit, all custome fit per model.
As for the non OEM bulbs, I dont know anything about the heat generated from anything other then OEM. It would make sense to forego one or the other. The PPF is completely removable, although I cant imagine why you would want to. I have had mine on the Expy for over a yr now and dont even notice. This is not a cosmetic thing, purely proactive. They havent faded one bit either.
