The clear bra works for my 08 C2S. I think white is the best color for hiding the bra. My only complaint is that near the lights the edge of the bra has lifted and needs to be trimmed.

That shouldnt happen. I would take it back and have the installer replace the piece. A good isntaller will heat and seal the edges once the kit is on.

I have some of the best clearbra installers in the nation working for me, and you WILL need to stretch the bra inorder to get correct installation on curvy areas. Can you see it without your glasses? No, you can't. And it looks perfect. The only reason it looks perfect over those body lines is because it was installed and stretched correctly. End of story. Anyone who doesn't think so obviously has no idea what they are talking about. I laughed when I read this!

Yeah unfortuantely there are people who blindly go along with the "Premier is the best" idea and they can do no wrong. I have seen some of their work that was sub-par... and have even replaced film on a car that they did originally. Yes they do some good work but there is no way possible to apply film without stretching... just not possible. So for someone to make a statement like you quoted above is just moronic and shows a lack of knowledge of the industry.

Wait, you make no sense

you are agreeing with me, you need to stretch a bra to get a correct application right? and what work out of what shop have you redone of ours? Do you even know what shop we are?
Read what you wrote, and then tell me how you don't agree with me. The original post said that a bra would show signs of discoloration when it was not installed correctly by being stretched. And I said a bra needs to be stretched to be installed correctly, just like you did. Therefore by changing the form of the bra, you could have different light refraction under polarized glasses in some instances.

What are you talking about? I never once metioned your shop... in fact if you read my post it says Premier. I agreed with you about stretching the film... anything more than that you need to learn how to read, because thats not what my post said.

As others have mentioned, I've used Premier for several years with 4 cars now under the team's careful management. Our insurance carrier uses them exclusively for claims, and have yet to have a customer complain about their work. As a matter of fact, my team gets quite a bit of positive reviews from our clients stating how much better their bra looks compared to before. Those in California, I would highly recommend them for their bra choice as I've seen way too many ****ter bra jobs in the past 6 yrs.
