Having clear bra installed Monday - one problem though

Z-WHIZ · 03-27-2011, 12:53 AM

Hey guys, I'm having the clear bra installed on Monday on my bumper, hood, mirrors, and fenders. However, I was washing the car today and found a new chip towards the front of the hood. I tried touching it up with my langka kit, but the chip is on the curved par tof the hood, so it's very difficult. My question is, what should I do about the bra? Should I just have them do everything but the hood for now so I can get the area touched up correctly?

Thanks

Had the same issue today, got my clear bra done in virginia. I had a slight chip on hood, just paint it now, and the bra will go over it. It shouldn't be an issue.

Else once the bra goes on, you the chip will be visible, and then you will need to paint over the bra, less preferred method.

It will just make an air pocket the size of the chip. If you can live with it just have it put on but it will show up. If you cant live with that get the chip fixed first =)
