- Just make sure you put a clear bra on the front of your car!

I 3M'd my Basalt 997 after seeing my BMW's hood when selling it. No one here in toronto does a good clear bra so 3M is only option

Hopefully, we can shed some light to the varying options on the market.

1. Film quality - there are products on the market that are very clear
2. Installation quality - custom install is our choice and is also what we are known for. Many who complain about visibility (as Stuka have pointed out) did not have a proper customized full panel installation.

Here are some photos below of likely why so many are against it...installation quality. In this instance, the owner of this ZR1 initially received a quote from us (he was a previous customer of ours and a happy one at that, but decided to try saving some money by searching out another company) and last minute cancelled the appointment to go with another installer who claims he can do the job just as good, but at over 30% less than ours

But why save the car for the next owner?

I just don't think an exotic car's finish looks as nice with a clear bra.

I give major credit to the guys who install them. They do a great job.

Just not something I would invest in.

Hope Stoppie doesn't mind us posting these photos. These pictures are just one example of why many dislike paint protection film - the installation. Just a few more shots of the previous installation:
