+1 clear bra.

Got mine from clearmask.com covers the leading edges of the fenders, hood, front bumper, and mirrors. Paid about $300, installed myself. I use the Nissan OEM bra over the clear one, just for added protection, on the highway.

Had one on my Sentra for 2 years, and there was no discoloration or anything.

 

Anyone with a pic of an actual installation? I assume that you can see something, but it is probably almost unnoticeable?

I have a million rock chips already and will probably paint the bumper and get a CF hood... so it will be a good time to do this.

Thanks!

Mine does not show up in pictures well unless the camera is a foot away.
Of all my pictures, these two show it the best


Look at the seam next to the headlight in this one, you can make out the clear bra seam.
You need to see it in person to get a good idea of what you are getting into.

Thanks, Hyper... it looks extremely clean indeed, I can barely make it at all.

Nice looking Z by the way!!

just repaint it... lets u have the option of changing up the front bumper too.

 

My car is horrible. The bumper, hood, fenders, all covered in little tiny specks. Might as well get the entire car repainted.

 

I debated getting the clear bra ($500+) vs just repainting ($300+). After hearing about some clear bra owners getting "some" damage from lager rocks and what not I opted for the repaint option. Unless you don't drive it you're bound to get some nicks/chips.

 

Clear bra is the way to go I got mine at chipdefender.com for around $260 best investment ever.

 

I have rock chips on my front end, but that's because I put the clear bumper piece on crooked, and instead of waiting for the replacement to get here, and doing it again, I took it off, and drove uncovered for about a week. Price I paid for my impatience... oh, well, it's only a couple small dings anyway.

 

Hey hypersprite, who'd you get it done from? I've emailed a few ppl in the bay area and only one actually got back to me but is way expensive ><
