Frontal Wraps / Clear Bras
#11
Lol
I wouldn't have speedfilm recommend (or send an installer). One of their authorized installers did a shitty job, you don't want them to f*ck it again. Remember, everytime you have it installed, the film is cut with razor-sharp blades. No room for error...
Find someone reputable doing serious cars and u should be safe. Or send it to premier (Cali)...
Take a look at some of Premier's threads about clearbra redos...it's not pretty...
Best of luck

Reason I suggest Speedfilm is exactly because their installer did a shitty job. Hold them accountable and make sure it's done right the second time around. It's a good point about the blades, as we've seen some hack jobs done that came through our shop, but a good remedy is just standing over the guy's shoulder the whole time to make sure it doesn't happen. :-)

Ship the car to Premier.
They wrap my entire hood and fender on the S4(https://teamspeed.com/forums/perform...nt-manual.html), and the entire car on the M5(https://teamspeed.com/forums/m/43386-taking-metro.html), and you couldn't tell.

I know this has been covered before, but I wanted to hear from owners who have had the fronts of their cars wrapped.
I just recently purchased a new 2011 Turbo (blk/blk pdk) and had a frontal wrap done by the dealer (third party). It was called "speed film", and it looks just awful. There are seams on the hood which look like they used a precut square and then had to cut additional triangles at the top of the hood by the windshield.
There are bubbles, scratches, and other imperfections in it. Needless to say, I just refused to pay for it because it looks like shit.
Now the problem is, I still want to get a good wrap on the front of the car, preferably all the way up the hood, but want it done correctly. I'm going to be putting a bunch of miles on the highway doing runs to the beach and dont want excessive chips/dings/etc from bugs and rocks on the highway.
Anyone here have any recommendations? Additionally, I'm in Atlanta Georgia...

Also, you install was "scheduled" for the 21st, which you did not make but chose to show up the next day for the work, reguardless of our schedule(which was full). This ment we had no indoor bay to work in at the dealership and had to do the install outside under a parking deck with limited light resulting in more bubbles than normal. Bubbles should be gone by now and there couldn't have been any scratches left by us using rubber squeegees.
Please pick a day when you can bring the car over to my shop and I will gladly address any issues you have with our work. We do several hundred Porsches every year and don't want anyone to be dissappointed with the product.
Yes we use precut patterns so there was absoultely no cutting on your car. The triangles are part of the pattern for that hood using 48 inch film.
