MP4 Full Protection? Sure Why Not.

Repeat client of ours just picked up this beautiful MP4. On the color black, it is an industry known issue that certain paint protection films (clear bra) are very noticeable. On black, two items must be aligned for the product to be truly clear:

1) The Installer - this is by far the most important of all. Here is an example of what happens when the wrong installer gets to work on a car:

Example: Brand new 2012 R8 V10 with razor cuts damaging entire front end - https://teamspeed.com/forums/perform...kes-again.html

2) The Product - the most critical color is black and having the clearest film be applied to it makes a noticeable difference in whether or not the installed film is really "clear"

Film we use - Prestige Film Technologies' ClearGuardX

*In addition to a full vehicle protection install on this MP4 (yes, the entire car is protected), we also applied Prestige's PhotoSync Nano Tint on the side glasses and the windshield

Let's get right to the photos

That looks identical to my new Mc, may I ask what the full body runs? Do I have to use a special wax later?

Just look at the high clarity of this paint protection film! So yes, it is possible to get clear bra done without getting the pesky seams across the hood or anywhere else. Just make sure it is someone who knows what they are doing.....otherwise, this may happen to your car:

Here is a video test of Prestige Film Technologies PhotoSync65 on a different car (the McLaren has PhotoSync45 with slightly better heat rejection than the tint in video)
