Clear bra?

Not the kind you fantasized about.

What are the pros and cons of clear bras? Which brand would you recommend aside from 3M? I live in TX so will the heat make it turn yellow, eventually? When you decide to remove it, will it take off any of the clear coat or paint? Will cleaning the car be an issue? Would you recommend a pro to do it or can I do it at home? Are there any kits made for the indentation in the handlebar area of the car door?

everyone i know who has had it has thought of it as a waste of money. it does fade over time, and it ends up really ugly.

lol well I dont mean that ha, once I get a new front bumper I'm going to get it ceramic cleared so any rock chips or normal wear will be decreased rather than a clear bra.

ive recently helped out on reworking a K1 attack car with a clear bra. it looks pretty flawless if cut correctly. Its not the best in harsh weather conditions / neglected exterior, because it will start peeling on the edges

The clear bra will eventually look nasty either way. Water, Moisture, Heat, Sun, etc overtime will dull/fog it up. Also when you wash your car, make sure you wipe it dry and not let it sit or it will look eww overtime.
