'I think all clear bras look cheesy no matter how great of quality the clear is or the install is. Even if you cover the entire car and have all the edges end in creases, gaps or underside of the body so you can not see lines you can still tell it has clear bra on it. For instance I saw this Enzo that had no visible lines at all on it but portions of the car had the lightest of orange peel effect in the paint where the rest of the paint was flawless. It was ever so slight (much less than say a normal chevy or ford paint job) but stood out like a sore thumb. So I started looking more closely and into the crevices and undersides of the body panels and noticed that it had a clear bra in those areas that looked like Ferrari had botched the paint. And that clear bra I found out was installed by these guys:\r\n\r\n
clear bra, paint protection film, tint, auto tint, safety film, chip paint, kits, custom, car\r\n\r\nwho are top notch and do nothing but high end exotics.\r\n\r\nPersonally I would never put a clear bra on my car and Ive installed a couple in the past since I also tint. (the reason I asked about removing is because I have never had to remove one prior to this car and had heard that there could be issues). I think that if you pride yourself in the brilliant finish and shine of your paint then why dull it with a clear bra? Just drive a bit safer and keep your distance behind cars, I know accidents do happen and that you cant be too careful, but hey that can happen even with a bra on it. Especially for the cost to have one put on, you can have the bumper repainted for less in most cases. But thats just my opinion.\r\n\r\nBut on this car, the clear bra was some cheap kit that the previous owner of the car installed himself and did a horrible job at that.\r\n\r\nP.S. I gave it a go today and it came off nicely. I started with a heat gun set to low and for some reason that made it harder. The glue heated up and the bra came off but was leaving the glue on the bumper and hood. So I stopped using the gun and just slowly pulled with it cold and it came off leaving no glue. For the places that it did leave glue I used the adhesive remover to clean it up. Thanks for the insight and I will post the full detail and pics when I am through with the car.'
