3m Clear Bra pricing, pieces

Premier covered mine in VentureShield. They covered the full hood, front bumper, front fenders, rear quarters, and rocker panels. Exceptional quality with a wild price!

give Sam @ Premier a call. they do jobs out of states if schedule works out for them. best job u can possibly find if money is not subject. they're on the ''wild'' side but expect the best. ![Smilie](https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)

I recently got my all done as well. 3M. Full hood, full fender(s). Rear 1/4 Panel. Headlights, Full Bumper,, Rear Wheels, Rocker panels, mirrors. Looks great. Everything was tucked in and i payed a really homie hook-up price that i cannot really disclose.

Was thinking of putting the 3m on one or two of the RS's. I have these on a few others that i drive, and while purists might not love the idea, i dig it. i can deal with seeing that microscopic line, but i hate unnecessary pin heads and stone chips on the car.
I called one or two places in my area, a guy i had used before who was reasonably and did a great job.
He came back with a wild price.
so my questions are:
1. what parts of the RS would you 3m? i was thinking full hood, front chin, f&r backs of wheel wells, side mirrors and i think thats it. anything else that i should cover?
2. what do you think that should run for parts & install?
3. anyone know anyone good in north jersey?
thx in advance.

You have one of the best installation centers in the US near you, Detailing Dynamics. Ship them the car and be done with it. You'll never regret spending a few $$ more for the best, but will always regret a cheaper, poor quality install.

Steve,
Use Nelson, Clear Image 973-207-7000. By far the best in NJ. I have used him for all my cars. 3M is super rough on the paint when it has to be removed. Avery is far eaiser on the paint. I will not let anyone put 3M films on my cars. Unless you want the paint removed as well.

OK lets be realistic here. I do not like 3M either but saying it will lift the paint is a little ridiculous. 3M has way to much orange peel to it and it has an acrylic top coat that does not flex with the film... so it will crack during the installation process and get worse as time goes by. The only time film will lift the paint off (any film) of a car is when the paint was not cured before the film was installed... or if the surface was poorly prepared before painting.

Totally agree re. Detailing Dynamics, they did my GT3 and like the others have said they do great work.

I'd second (or third) the recommendation for Premier. Have had 3 cars covered by different people and Premier did by far the best job.
The main difference is they wrap the panels to the edges and try to tuck in the panel edge so there are no visibile lines. This makes it appear as if there is no clear cover and also eliminates the edge that picks up wax build-up. They did this on my Stradale rocker panels and actually pulled off the "Pininfarina" logos and applied the clear underneath so there is no cut line around the logos. There is no visible seam line anywhere on the panel unless you crawl under the car. Very trick.
I'd imagine that the complexity of the GT3 airdam will add to the cost for that type of custom work.
It is not cheap but well worth it. Although the "basic" bumper / 1/4 hood application may be just north of $1k it quickly multiplies as you add custom coverage.
