Mirror protectors, scratch guards, headlight protectors

Hi everyone- I'm having a hell of a time finding those clear plastic protector sheets that stick to the outides of the mirrors, the headlights, and the ones that fit under the door handles to protect from scratches. Mid America Motorworks used to sell them but now they're not doing much Porsche stuff anymore. I couldn't locate them at Pelican or Performance Products either.

Anyone know where I can find these?

Thanks in advance

Have you tried contacting one of those clear bra installers? They might either be happy to apply them for you or sell you the individual pieces.

Thanks GonzoS- I'll check them out. You have any idea on a rough price for front bumper and mirrors?

I can't remember the exact cost but, I think it was about $800 for full front bumper, partial hood, partial fenders, lights, and mirrors. I went with the whole front end (Bumper, full hood, front fenders, lights)

I work at a Lexus dealership who offers Chiprotect on all their cars (professionally installed at a top notch, independent body shop) and their price for that amount of protection runs you about $300.

I found them on Rennlist i think some 3 yrs ago and have been using htem ever since. Excellent stuff they use with none of that leopard skin looking stuff that's used by my dealership. They're probably the most expensive out there, but the craftiness in their skill makes them stand out amongst the rest. Yet to see anything better than them - go with premier.

I have a set I bought, and never used. I ran my car into the tire barrier on the Corkscrew at LS, so had it done along with the repairs. Let me know if you're interested in them, and I'll try to find what I paid, 60% of that will be my price.

I had Premier do a full custom film wrapped around front of car & emblem removed + custom front bumper with film tucked (headlamps / driving lights / signals removed for film tuck)
custom full hood -
custom full front fenders -(both sides)
inner front and rear wheel arches – 4 corners directly behind tires
Headlights, and driving lights
I also had Window Film – Ceramics 5 glasses - $550

Total: $2765 with the ceramic window film.

Sam did an awesome job, I highly reccomend them.

My car is a 997 GT3

Gonzo, what tint shade did you get from Premier? You mentioned you got the ceramic? Huper or Matico? What is your interior color? Any pics? Just picked up GT Silver / black and thinking about what shade to go with. I'll be getting the same kind of bra coverage on her from premier!!
