To Clearbra or Not to Clearbra?
 
That is the question!!! I guess if it's only about $1000, what are people's reasons for not doing it assuming you have a good installer? Why not protect your 100k investment from the harsh elements?? And no these jerkoffs still haven't fully activated my account so I'll answer any questions with a new thread!!!hilarious

Personally, I don't like the look. As "invisible" as it is, you can still see the line. I've been driving my C4 daily since July, including the CT winter and no chips yet (strike wood). That being said, if you are going to do a lot of DE events, it is probably worthwhile.

what lines ? I had my car complete clear bra you won't see lines if you get the full hood and fenders wrapped.

I have it on all my cars. I love it. Also, I get my done for about $500...

$1000 seems awefully high.

the film is available in bigger size now therefore the entire hood & fenders can be covered with no line. very invisible if done by a good installer.

i'd definately get it....just make sure if you going to change your front bumper you do it first and not think about it afterwards like I did....it would be a waste :(

Did not do it - I don't like the 'line'. Sorry, no matter what anyone says I can see it on almost every color (especially my yellow) from a distance.

If you do a complete clear bra there should be no lines. Complete hood wrap, front fenders and bumper wrapped.

fastoc996twint 01-23-2008 10:24 PM

who sells the complete front end wrap?

scuzy 01-23-2008 10:51 PM

most of the installer will do those now. I just got mine done by Greg @ forcefield it's a complete wrap by ventureshield.

fastoc996twint 01-23-2008 10:54 PM

$ball park for complete wrap?

scuzy 01-23-2008 10:55 PM

$1500 to $2000 depends on the installer

tranquility 01-23-2008 11:39 PM

How long does it take to do the whole process of complete front wrap?

scuzy 01-24-2008 12:05 AM

no idea i had mine done took a day cause it started raining so i left it at the installers.

I was unsure about doing it too, but after seeing the road rash on my 996, I decided to try clear bra on my 997. Bhane did my full hood and offered to do full fenders (which I should have said yes to). He did excellent work and I am converted from a skeptic to a believer.
