Default Clear Bra

Anyone know of an installer in the Pinellas/Tampa for the clear bras? I'm thinking about getting one but would want to have it installed...

Anyone of pics of a black bra on a Silver S2000?

Thanks
Michael

I got mine done at Nushine in Pinellas Park on Pinellas Park. They use Lumar and you can't even see it on my black car unless you look at the side view on the hood. ROb and Brian are awesome.

Tell them Jeff with the black S2000 sent you. Maybe it will get you a discount.

I'm in Jax but a couple of us have gone clear bra and love. I too have black and just like Jeff said...you really can't ever see it. Looks good on silver too but on black it vanishes. It's worth the money IMO.

I'm going to bump this up because I was just about to make a new post before I saw this. I am also looking for a reputable clear bra installer for a Suzuka Blue S2K. I am in the New Tampa area and would prefer an installer in Tampa instead of St Pete. Any other recommendations?

Thanks,
Ryan

I know there is one named Nushine as well at the intersection of florida and flecture. It's in between gas station and motorcycle store. The store is kind of small but you will be able to see it. I went over there and try to get mine done about a year ago but they cost too much. If I can remember, it was somewhere around 6 hundred bucks. Since lots of you guys are interested, anybody think it will be a good idea to get it done together and maybe get some discount? I am in as long as the price is not sky high.

The Nushine on Florida is out of business. I am going tomorrow to get the lower parts replaced. Rocks and shi_ after two year plus the paint guy oversprayed the parts. That is the only I am getting them done. The guys at Park Blvd are the best. I will be there Thursday!

These guys are worth the drive. There is a lot of technique needed to lay it down without lint, bubbles, and imperfections.

There are always some imperfections in the clearbra. They threw away expensive material to get it just right.

I live in Wesley Chapel and I'm going over there.

I live over in Wesley Chapel also. I would like to get it done this weekend, but $600 is kind of steep. I was hoping to spend more like $400.

This guy lives in the Tampa Palms/Hunters Green area and comes highly recommended. He travels the state doing custom installs and fixing the sloppy work done by floozies who "think" they know what they are doing. Check out his website, he only uses 3M product.

I plan to use him to do my S2000 and the my new Mazda6 that I just got over the weekend. The Expedition was just raping the wallet at the pump.

Check out the 3M clear bra well. All the ones I looked at were slightly orange peeled. They were not as clear as the Lumar brand. I saw several on ferraris and lambos and none of them were near as clear as the lumar stuff. That is why I went with the lumar brand. A dealer told me that 3m has a UV protection built in so the paint under the clearbra wont fade like the rest of the paint. Not good.

Look into both brands before settling on either one.
