Default Help me guys... Clearbra...

I want to get protection for my front end but I have no idea what to get... I guess clear bra is the best, plus it looks the best because you can't see it? Which brand is the most transparent, tough, and removable without any damage to the paint or clearcoat? I've seen some on Ebay for 10 bucks to $95 with names like 3M, Ventureshield, etc. ALSO, will you see the difference in the paint when you take it off a few years later? Thanks Guys!

Default I bought the TT kit from Invinca Shield.

My daughter helped me install part of it and my friend and I did most of it. It's somewhat time consuming. They're all pretty much the same (a 3M product).

Default go to invinca-shield.com they have what your looking for.

I've had mine on for 5years now and it looks like it was just installed yesterday. It was a DIY project and it took most of the day. Start with the hood piece first, it's real easy next should be the fender panels, now your a pro at it. Remember to take your time and you'll be fine. They send you a tape on how to install it too.

Default autopaintguard

I found an old post on here from Ryan, the owner. He was offering discounts for forum members. I contacted him and got a great deal. It's a discount that he can not publish, so you will have to e-mail him and ask for it.

I did a bit of research onthis and found out there are only two companies that make the software to cut the designs. They are a little different. Make sure you are getting 3m film, though. The ebay ones use something else.<ul><li><a href="http://www.autopaintguard.com">clearbra</a></li></ul>

Default Re: Help me guys... Clearbra...

If your looking to do your install yourself.. a kit like Invinca Shield is a good way to go. If you interested in getting a really good coverage kit that needs to be professionally installed, then let me know. A list of professional installers can be found on the 3M website at http://solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/3M/en_US/Scotchgard-PPF/Home/For_the/Consumer/Find_Installer/

As far as a kit, There is a big difference between all the brands out there. the 3M film is the best film. Other companies can use films like venture tape, avery or llumar paint protection. Which in my opinion are lesser of a product. Ask around and do some research and don't take my word for it. Do a search for accutint and see what others have to say about their paint protection kits. Thats what i do best.
