I got the 3M Paint Protection installed today total cost was $575 which is a deal the shop owner didn't charge me as much for install. He did say this is a hard car to do lots of curves in the front unlike a Porsche which he does alot for the local club. Anyway here are the pics I was surprised when I first walked up how I couldn't tell it was even there. I had to walk up and touch it just to make sure. My guy used the www.xpel.com software for the kit which was perfect fit and coverage.

That looks great and I seriously need to do it before I get any chips.

Yeah, you do. I have regretted it since day 1. I didn't have the cash so i was like "i'll wait until i get the money in a month or so." by then it was too late.

I have wanted to do it for other cars but haven't I am very glad I did it makes the drive so much more enjoyable when you aren't worrying about chips.

Nice.

I'm a huge fan of the clearbra; I have an XPel clearbra too.

It's one of the smartest things an Evo owner can buy, considering how spirited we drive our Evos.

Don't forget to wax it.

I was told by my installer that a coat of wax will prolong it's life.


For all those who are contemplating getting a clearbra......don't.

Just get one.

A well installed clearbra is hardly noticable.

I sometimes forget I have it and it makes your car easier to wash

My installer recomended the plexus plastic wax. I heard of it before they use it for clear plastic stuff like motorcyle and convertible top plastic glass stuff to keep it clear.

How much did that cost you? Did you have the bumper and mirrors done too?

Mine did too.

I don't think it's a wax, but just a spray cleaner that has some plastic protective chemicals in it.

My installer used the Plexus spray to get off some of the fingerprints he had left on my clearbra.

I bought a case of the stuff.


BTW for the person that posted above me, the cost of an install should be about $600 - $675 (I paid just over $650 and I had my mirrors and headlights done as well).

Are you guys getting just the front? I got the extended package which did the Whole front bumper, part hood, fenders, side mirrors, and the rockers for 800. Expensive but Everywhere else was quoting the same or more. And according to www.xpel.com my guy suses the same thing also.
