Clear Bra - Poll
 

So I have ordered my 370z and can't wait to get it. The dealership said custom Z's usually take about 2-3 months; it has only been 4 weeks and I already can't wait haha. Anyways, I was wondering what you guys thought about this. I have heard a lot of previous 350z owners have got it done in the past and they said it lasts about 7 years, but needs to be professional taken off.

There is a place around me that puts the clear bra on BMW's all the time, the cost is usually around 225 professionally installed.

Still not sure if I am gonna go through with it, just seeing what everyone's opinion is.

I know what you mean about waiting. I got another month to go still. When it does finally get here the first thing I am going to do is get paint protection installed on the entire front of the car up to the mirrors including the roof line.

100% Get the 3M
 

Got 3M on the front, not disappointed one bit. Had windows tinted to state specs. at same time. Anybody getting a Z should get a clear bra.

I'd highly recommend getting one. This was the first car I ever installed one. However, I would highly recommend doing this as soon as possible after you take delivery to avoid any nicks before you install it.

My last car was only a year old and it had all kinds of road rash including two cracks in the windshield due to all the damn dump trucks driving down the road and spewing their sand and rocks (live in FL and it's a frequent event).

After only two weeks with my Z, I had a handful of nicks. Since I put the clear bra on, no problems and the love bugs wipe right off.

In the future, I'll get the clear bra installed as soon as I take delivery.

clear bra
 

i'm a big fan of waxing since i live in south florida, i like the ideal of the clear bra but, would u put a coat of wax on first????

The experts say you can put a coat of wax on before you have one installed to make it easier to remove later. This isn't a requirement and the material can still be removed without damaging the paint. When it's installed, it's recommended that the wax is removed along the edges to allow the material to stick better. Once installed, you wax the material just like you wax without.

Having venture shield installed on Tuesday, the installer couldn't get me done before then. Have been driving carefully, trying to avoid running too close to another vehicle, but have already picked up a rock chip in the bumper since taking delivery on Tuesday :mad: Will touch it up and hope I don't get anymore Monday. Gonna let the car sit this weekend. I think they are well worth it. My 2006 nose was a mess, looked like someone had shot it with a shotgun there were so many rock chips.
