NJ Clear Bra Installed

Finally had a nice day here in NJ to wash my car and take some pictures of my clear bra. The clear bra was installed by Monster Coatings Inc (888)395-1978. E-Mail: MONSTERCOATINGS@AOL.COM They also do window tinting and remote starts

Can you wax with a clear bra on?
Or do you wax the car before putting the clear bra on?

The wax needs to be removed from the car before putting the clear bra on. Otherwise it will not stick. With the clear bra on you wash and wax as you normally would.

I always say, "A bra is meant for your girl, not for your car". But, the clear bra seems to bring an amendment to my rule. Congrats, looks good!

Thank you, Before the new front end, my front bumper and lip were covered in rock chips, and looked like crap. It was a good investment and worth the money

I bought a Roll of 3m film about a year ago for 75 bucks and covered most of the main parts of my autobahn front... Not a single rock chip where I covered the paint. GREAT investment, looks good^

Not at all. Complex curves probably, but I just did everything facing forward on the bumper that would take the brunt of the rock damage. Soak it with soapy water and slide the piece on then smooth it out and trim the edges. A hood would be easy I'd guess. Then again 500 isn't bad just to have a shop do it and have that warranty..

The oem front bumper has some difficult curves and i suggest having a professional to the install. Yes the hood is pretty staight foward. Like shakeyourbrakes said it does come with a warranty. I watched Laszlo install it and he made it look easy, after 15yrs of experience. I am glad i did not try to install the kit myself.

It's definitevly worth the money, and in my opinion, the side skirts would be also nice to do, because you know that your own wheels can throw little rock on it...

Now you know , what I want to point out is that, if you planned to tint the windows, go with secure film from llumar or 3M, it makes such a difference, and is maybe slightly more expensive than the ordinary tint films. You will be amazed with it just by seeing one or two examples on youtube. Good luck with your car mate...

I carry a seriously severe dislike towards bras, (both kinds lmfao), but like xun4gvn4everx said, I have amended my opinion, it really is hardly noticeable.
