How Many of You Installed A Clear Bra on Your Z?
I did some searching but was surprised to not see any threads. Is it not a popular add on with these cars? If you did do it, what parts were wrapped?

You didn't search very hard then. There are lots of threads.
Everything from front bumper and part of the hood to bumper, hood, roof, pillars, front and rear fender flares. Just depends on what you want to pay. |
I got it. half the hood, all front bumper. and the front corners of the fenders, what they call their "bikini cut". Lastly the area right in front of the rear wheels.
It was expensive but well worth it. Just with the first 5k miles or so i drove it it was already showing rocks chips and such. Do it. |

I had 3M paint protection the very day I purchased my Z. Failed to have hood done as they could only do half. A mistake. Planning on getting the hood done as soon as I get a VERY small chip repaired. May use Dr. Color Chip as it is not that big. Definitely get it done. You will not regret!

Had some of the car done about two years ago, and I wish I got the whole car done at the same time.
I only did the parts in the attached photo...For all items covered, I was charged $1425 and the installer came to my house on a Saturday and was done in about 8 hours. So far, it's held up very well and no one can tell it is on there unless I tell them. |
I should mention that I did not get a clear bra. And I regret it. Hindsight, I would cover everything from the front bumper to the rear fenders.

I did not get it and regret it.
Hindsight, I would do the bumper and and maybe the hood. I do not like seams on panels so I would not do half the hood or half of any panel. Bumper has tons of chips, hood only has 1 and a very light scratch from a piece of flying cardboard on the highway. |

was the biggest mistake i ever made my entire life. :mad: |
next biggest mistake was walking into the ladies room unknowingly. :mad:
and being accused i did it on purpose. :shakes head: wtf would i want to see bare taffyapple arse? :barf: |
It was the first thing I had done to the car . Had the hood, bumper and mirrors done. IMHO, it's the best mod you can make to the car. It's a little pricey, but it's worth it. Should you ever resell it, it'll pay for itself.

About 100 miles in I got my full hood, front bumper, quarter panels, leading edges on the mirrors and leading edge about 6 inches up the roof.

I paid $950 for the entire front including the headlights and side mirrors, too much money if you ask me but it saves you more money on the long run.
