How's your front end holding up?
 
I'm just under 2k miles and already have a couple of nicks. I know its inevitable, but sad nonetheless.

Paint is thin. My hood looks like it was hit with a meteor shower. I plan on getting it repainted, or replaced.

Clear bra the whole front before it gets really bad

I have 25k miles on mine and probably needs to be repainted. Clear bra will be added afterwards!

What would the approximate cost be for a Clear Bra?

around 600 to 800 depending on the place you go to

i got a lot of little rock chips all over my bumper too... when i decide to to repaint and get it all fixed, im definitely going to put a clear bra on to protect the front bumper more

Yeah, I was quoted $700 last year to get the bumper, part of the hood, part of the fenders and the side mirrors covered. Not sure how much just for the bumper alone... maybe $400?

I remember reading somewhere that a company did a whole Z for $1000, but the dealership I got mine at charged $600 for the bumper half hood an quarter panels.

Just make sure you get the ones that wrap around the edges and DON'T let the tech cut the film on your car

Paid $600 for mine
Full front bumper, partial hood, partial fenders, & side mirrors

^^ This. Luckily I didn't pay for my clear bra, it was already on the car when I bought it, but they did like a half inch gap all around, the edges don't wrap around the body part, and it gets dirty and easily visible, and one or two corners are starting to peel up just a bit. I want to just buy the material and redo it myself.
