    That's my point. And again this is only my opinion, but it is like putting plastic on your couch.

    Have you non-believers ever had a clearbra? Do you drive your Fcars very much? High speed? On track?

    I'm a fan 100 perecent. Provided that you get a good install, they aren't very visible unless you're looking and they do a great job.

    As much as I drive my 360, it'd look like hell if it didn't have it, plain and simple. If my car was a garage queen, I might not bother with it but if you drive your car like it was meant to be driven...

    No and Yes and Yes and Yes. Again I am not trying to piss anyone off, but the ones I have see are very obvious, make a red car have an orange look and the seams look like a scratch. Again, like plastic on your new sofa, it screams ghetto.

    My rec? If you are a noob to them, make sure you go see a few!!!!

    That said, Russell is also right!!!

    Now I will shut up on the issue unless someone asks me another question.

    Used Bruce Horton and X-pel. I think everyone that has seen it (and it is very difficult to see) on my Ford GT thinks it is a first class job. I will be at VIR March 31, so please feel free to take a look at it. Then again, it's just a FORD!! ha.

    I used to use a protectant film on the nose of my 360 for track days and when I was following JRR. I decided the continuous application and removal was not worth the effort. Even though I applied the product liberally, I still had damage. I decided to not bother because it was never really that bad. Additionally, I know that if and when I ever decide that my front nose has gotten bad enough to do something about then there are plenty of shops that are near and capable of making the necessary repairs just like new.

    I have to agree with Dr. S. I have never liked the look, especially after the install has yellowed, and all of them will.

    Just drive the car, enjoy the hell out of it, and then fix what is wrong with it once you decide to get rid of it.

    41,368 miles +. All of it hard, just the way the car was meant to be driven. All I have ever done is brakes, lots and lots of tires, and fluids. I wish everyone was so lucky.

    I had 2 restored classic Ferrari's (a 308 and a Testarossa) done by Raleigh Clear Bra. He is a 3M Trained Installer and Todd did a Fantastic job!
    They didn't have the patterns in the computer ( I was surprised the Testarossa wasn't in his database to be cut by a computer), so Todd was able to hand cut them beautifully! He was trained to score the film, then pull the excess away, so he never cut into the new paint jobs.
    I think he may also have a website: RaleighClearBra.com. I lost his number... sorry!
