Default clear bra recommendations

Does anyone have recommendations for a place that does paint protection film/clear bra? I'm in the South bay. Thanks.

If youre in Sac I can get you hook up for under 400. Had my bumper, headlights, fogs, hood, fenders, and rear upper bumper done recently.

how much could you get it done for a bumper that won't have precut stencils? I have 2 jdm front bumpers i want to get clear bra'd but it would have ti be custom cut.

i have a buddy that does clear bras as a mobile service. He specializes in dealer cars and private high end vehicles. If you are interested PM and i can point you in his direction.

He has done a few members cars on CL including GStrilogy's 1st, 2nd, 3rd gen GS's that you might have seen at BOS.

I'm assuming they wouldn't recommend doing a clear bra on a front end that has some mileage on it?

They usually don't because the imperfections would stand out too much

I got mine done a little over $300 for hood, fenders, mirrors, upper rear bumper, headlights, fogs with my front bumper and custom lip.
Give them a call, let them know that they just did it to a SMG IS350 they'll know who I am

I am looking for recommendation as well, but I am looking for installer for 3M scrotchguard, not ventureshield...

I have used both and the ventureshield stained permanently while the 3M has no problems.
