Just make sure you install this correctly. I saw 2 cars today (a Black mercedes, and a new white corvette) both HORRIBLE install clear bras. It was SOOooo disgusting looking.

I just organized a clearbra/tint group buy. We are getting full custom cuts. I looked at several of the local shops that do the pre cut kits. There was nothing that comes to the quality of a good installer who only does custom cuts.

Oh, sorry.

I thought the GM factory part on a GM factory car would be OEM

if the part comes out of a GM factory box with a GM tag on it that part who cares if it's a USDM or AUDM part.

In any event by your argument the bumper cover that comes on the car is not OEM because the car was never designed to be sold as such.

well technically you are correct , it is GM OEM
just not available in the USA.

As far as the clear bra, they are cut on a plotter.

the clear bra manufacturer ie: Xpel. sells the patterns to make the cuts, to its agents.

with that being said, since there is little demand for U.S based clear bra agent to cut a pattern for a holden bumper, it is not feasible for the agent to purchase the pattern.

However, an AUS agent, does have the demand to spend the $$ to buy the pattern, and that is how you must buy yours

www.paintshieldaustralia.com is who you need to contact


So now you learned all you needed to know about clear bra's
