Clear bra

Recently I put an order for IM Roadster and thinking about having clear bra (plastic film) on it. Did anyone try one?

Looks like StonGard (www.stoneguard.com) has a pattern for 356A. I'm hoping that works for vert D.

I've seen their guards on 356 headlight glass but haven't seen the painted surface version. Personally, I would prefer it to a black vinyl bra if 1) it doesn't damage the paintlike they can, and 2) it doesn't cause a noticable paint color shift in the areas that are covered, 3) doesn't yellow with age, and 4) is easy to remove. Sounds like correct installation might be a juggling act for the do-it-yourself guy.

There are companies in Vancouver that do clear bras (saw them at the auto show). Henry would probably know. I hear it's expensive...like $1000. I also hear that it's a job left the the pros.

There may be more info about the clear bra in our site archives.
It seems to me a lot of folks thought about it last year and there was a lot of discussion as to pros/cons and such.
My recollection was that for the cost of the product and your expectations, it best be installed by a pro.

Thank you for the information, Paul. BTW, do you know if there is better way to find the posts about clear bra (or any specific topic) in the archive, than going through each page?

That's a question for Theron... I hunt and peck away, all good stuff, but when you get to my age, you need to write down what you were originally looking for otherwise next thing you know you're bidding on eBay for fluffy powder blue slippers to go with your bra!

I wonder how much trouble it is to have one of those 'search' features like the parts guys have?

Paul are you buying fluffy slippers again.... LOL
