  • 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.

Put Clear Bra, used Expel Ultimate Plus, from Car Protection Pros, on the G80. We did manage a couple of imperfections but you have to be up close and personal to see them. The install was straight forward, if you have excellent window tint skills, you can install this kit. The company will email you to verify your MODEL before they CUT, because after the CUT, No Refund.


Tips for Install:
Clay bar the area before install, dry thoroughly, and have a Tac rag or lint free cloth to area before install.
Good lighting
Wet Floor of the garage
NO Fans
good nitrile gloves
4-5 drops of baby shampoo in a windex sized bottle; figure amount if you go larger

Wet your gloves before picking film off roll, larger pieces may require an extra hand - gloves for them and wet them too
Wet film as you peel it up from roll ( you cut out the parts separately from the roll to make it easier to handle because it will come in one log roll)
Wet area for install thoroughly
Put the film down and center
Wet top of film, start squeegee process.
When you get it straight and it looks good, use a solution of 50/50 alcohol and water to set the edges - spray solution AT edges and squeegee again. Dry film and edges with soft microfiber cloth.
After your done, you use a heat gun on medium, about 12-14" away to help set the edges.
Sit in the sun for 6-8 hours to help cure.







Kit:
1 pc for hood, 1 pc for Genesis emblem area, 1 ea for mirrors, 1 ea for fender by lights, 1 ea for half the bumper area, so bumper is two pcs of film, one long pc for bottom of bumper - this was actually toughest pc to install, had to wet the bottom with alcohol solution to get it to set underneath.

full hood or partial hood?

I did the 3m precut kit, was only 1/4 hood.

Just partial, about 18" I think.
