Default Clear Bra Reviews

Hello! So as some of you may know, I'll be moving to Corvallis in a few weeks. During my stay, I will be commuting to and from Seattle about once a month. I was hoping to have a clear bra installed before I leave Reno but because my front end is being refinished and repainted, I will have to wait 3-5 weeks for it to cure. I noticed in one of the stickies that 503 Motoring was a good place to have clear bras installed.

Can anyone whose had one installed from 503 Motoring (or any of the other places listed) provide their input on the quality and work? Their online prices seem a bit steep for me, but who knows....maybe it might be worth it?

Thanks,
Richard

That's where I had my Scotchgard clear bra installed - the first time.

Their work is excellent. They do contract work for all the high-end dealerships in the area.

They have a computer program for cutting the bra so it covers everything and fits perfectly.

When i got a ding in my front bumper last year, I had another place do the clear bra. Yes, the price was better, but the job was not as good. There were a few "puckers" and it wasn't one large piece like 503 did. It was quite a number of pieces, so it is more noticeable.

If I had to do it again, I would go back to 503!

I had my windows tinted there in my other s2000. They work they do is good. All of the blazers players have their cars done there as well for aftermarket stuff.

503 did our clear bra. As Larry and Ira mentioned there are some big dollar cars there from local dealerships so I figured they must be good.

It may be a few more $$$ but it was installed properly & seems to be a good product (3M). I recall we paid extra to have the headlights done with a heavier mil coating. We have had for 3+ years w/o issues.

Mine was done 5 years ago, so the price is probably out of date.

You should just call and see what they charge now.
