clear bra or no clear bra?

so what is the word on whether or not to get the clear bra for your cgt?

if so, do you only do the front or the full version?

i would figure that it is worth while to at least do the front to protect yourself from minor chip damage.

thnx

Get one and at least do the front (bumper, hood, fenders, lights, mirrors) and the rear wheel areas.

nice. how much does it usually cost for the front? rear wheel areas? on a cgt

how competitive are your prices in comparison to local places?

I would recommend doing the full hood wrap, so that you don't see the seam across the middle of the hood.

I have a half wrap and at certain angles, you can see where the clear bra ends.

Great advice. Any advice on how much to wrap to protect from getting key'd? lol

I am a masters student at berkeley and am worried about my car getting key'd by other passing students.

Any suggestions would be great.

my suggestion to keep from getting keyed in Berkeley is to get a daily driver that you don't care about.

I think a CGT is a little excessive for a college campus

u can surely afford a 5k used beater? if not, then take a loan out bro.
i would hate to take a bcgt to school. would look like made out of $$$ and draw unecessary attention when u r just there for education.

Did you say that you cannot afford a DD? I think the other member is suggesting a Honda, not another Porsche as a daily driver.

HTP gave good advice. My friend has all of the aforementioned areas protected on his 360, 360 CS, and Vantage and it's hardly noticeable.

Cant do the CGT in one piece... or any other car for that matter. You can do each panel in seperate pieces...

i wouldn't do the whole car, not worth it.
i would however do the complete front.
hood, fender, bumper. lights etc.
