Front End all Beat to $h!t

Okay -- I know many people are not happy with the way the paint has lasted on the front end of the EVo... My BBY looks like it has been sand blasted (white specs every where)... I might end up getting a BRA for the front end for the winter... ( i know that they are ugly but i can't stand all the chips)

Anyway I'm going to make it through the summer, fall and winter but then I want to re-paint the front end, hood maybe even the fenders. Has anyone done this yet?

(and after the re paint I will install the clear bra so I don't have to deal with this again)

your insurance will repaint your bumper and frontal impact areas, you just have to file a claim its comprehensive, and you just pay your low deductible.

then wait 30 days and have clear bra put on.

I repainted em, got the 3m clear bra. Works wonders. I have black, too, which shows all the wonderful sandblasting. You can get clear bra for the headlights, too, which works awesome.

Am About to get one installed on mine Professionally. I seen them online and I think most people buy 2 because they mess up on the first one. Best advice is to go have someone that knows how to do it, do it for you.
