  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

After putting 200,000 miles on my 05 Mercedes and seeing how the love-bugs, sand, rocks, occasional raccoon, eyc..has ate away at the paint, I decided to invest in a clear bra.
A local guy (Orlando Fl) is out in my garage doing the installation right now.

Here's some "in the process pics"

I'll get some more detailed pictures of the finished product, once he's done.
 
Nice pics, looking forward to seeing the final product. Please post when he's complete.

in this pic, purposely taken in direct sunlight, you can see how far up the 3M goes on the hood. the line will become less obvious as the film cures over the next couple of days...other than that line, you have to look really hard to find the others. he did a great job...took him just under 4 hours.

What parts of the car did he apply the film, can you be specific? Oh and how much was it if you don't mind me asking?

ALL the painted surfaces in the front and both side mirrors.

$595.00 parts and labor.....not sure if that is high or not. I didn't shop it around> I went on his reputation with My Audi and Porsche Club friends' recommendations.

looks great bro! the 3M bra itself seems to fetch for 90-150, so labor was probably 100/hr
 
Hey Scott
Nice job I also have 3M clear bra on front and door handles because of the sracthes. My man in Mt. Vernon NY Maddmoe did a couple already and everyone is happy. I drive a white Genny so you can't see the line across the hood, unless you are right on top of the car.
