They put a clear film over the parts of your car that are subject to chipping (bumper, part of the hood, part of the fenders, mirrors, etc.) The clear film is supposed to help protect your paint. I would recommend it because in the one month I've owned the car, there have already been two paint chips on my bumper. The nice thing about the clear bra is it's almost invicible hence the name.

It costed $461 total. It included the bumper, 18" of the hood, part of the fender, & mirrors. It didn't include the roof.

Default clear bra on east coast

Hi, I'm in the east coast in the NJ area and was wondering if there is anyone that does the clear bra over here.

Detailing Dynamics on Long Island does it, but they're pricey.

DETAILING DYNAMICS is the BEST in the NY area. Their film is NOT pre-cut in "kits".

They use one stretched piece of film that wraps around the entire front end, and it is meticulously tucked into every possible crevice (i.e. the grill is removed and film brought under, wrapped and cut under wheel-well, etc.). There are hardly any visible trim lines when they're done.

Do yourself a favor. If you are considering a clear bra (which I recommend), make sure you go custom and not pre-cut (kits). WHEREVER you choose to go.

But again, these guys are top-notch, take great care of your vehicle, and are as detailed as I am when it comes to my car. Any cost concerns should be dismissed if you spent the money you did on your car and care enough to protect it.

Just my recommendation and opinion.

Anyone in the NC area get a clear bra yet? I was quoted $620 from a local shop ($699 at dealership on a pre cut kit) and was surprised that it was so much higher than the $450 or so being stated from the west coast.

Anyone have any recommendations for a place to go in NC (Raleigh or Charlotte area would be fine).

Thanks,

JS
