Default 3M Clear Bra

Was wondering what a 3M Clear Bra is and where can you get one. Also, any good group buys going on right now?

Anyone on the list in MD and know of any group meetings.

I had invinca-shield (3M) installed on my Z by a local distributor. I would suggest having it professionally done. The following web site has distributors by GEO:

Hello,

Read your post, and I can definitely help you if you are interested,

There are several kits with various options that can be installed on your 350Z. The most Basic is the "Standard Kit" for $171.00. The second is the "Deluxe kit" for $408.00. Then there are assorted "Optional Pieces” that can be installed. The Full "Optional Pieces Kit" is $142.00. Please see the 2 links below.

http://www.invinca-shield.com/asp/genkit.asp?kit=3244

Basically what you are looking to do is cover areas that would be most susceptible to stones, bugs, salt, and sand. Obviously it is in my best interest if you buy every option, but I honestly wouldn't recommend it. It's really total overkill. If you were to have the entire optional pieces kit installed it would cost $142.00.

The only other options that allot of people order is #8 Cab Top for $42.00 which protects the front portion of the roof, #10 Upper Mirror for $10.00, and #11 Lower Mirror for $11.00. If you click on the link below, you will see a diagram with all the prices for everything on your car.

Just to let you know about how I do business. First, and foremost I am an automotive enthusiast, so I am probably one of the pickiest people you will ever meet. I do every car with the same precision that I would do my own vehicle. It is in my own best interest to do an exceptional job for you. I get the majority of my business from referrals from happy customers, in addition if I do not do a perfect job the first time, I will only have to come back to do it all over again.

If you let me know which kit you would like, and any optional pieces, I can give you a price for the install. Just as an example though if you were to do the Deluxe Kit with option #10 Upper Mirror, and Option #11 Lower Mirror the total cost including install would be $854.00. My work is not cheap, and you could probably find another installer who might do it for about 50-75 dollars less, but I can guarantee you will not find a better end result anywhere. The whole process takes me anywhere from about 4 to 7 hours depending on the car. A lot of other Installers whack out the job in 3 hours, but I want to make sure it is absolutely perfect, and I don’t mind taking the extra time to do the job right. I really enjoy what I do, and I derive tremendous satisfaction out of seeing my customers faces when the get their cars back after the installation.



Thanks Again,

I take it you don't use razor blades. My car and razor blades just don't mix. I think you know what I mean.




This is what I think of the installer that razor bladed my entire front end, mirrors, headlights, ect, you get the pic.

Razor Blades???? Never!!!! All the kits are Pre-Cut. I read your previous post about your razor blade disaster. I would have killed that guy.

And the sad part is, when I went back to the dealer to get the scratches fixed, he said I cost him $1500. Because he has to paint for the paint job, needless to say, I did a BBB and Nissan complaint.

No one currently makes a specific kit for the aftermarket bumpers, but a piece can be made for you.
