Heres a quick pic of my car with a clear bra installed. Try and spot it.
Great pic, i can't tell at all. How long have you had it on? is there a specific bra you used? How much did it set you back?

Xpel has the best clear bra right now interms of no yellowing or clarity. The 3m venture shield is also really good. I track the car so I had mine done, zero issues and also just had my 335i done as well. It doesn't protect every square inch but I am pleased with them.

Here is the CR and 335i, I have extend bra on CR with mirrors, and extended bra, mirrors, and A pillars and front roof on my bmw.
Hope it helps your decision.

Mine has only been on about a month now. I ordered from invisiblemask.com, spent $260 on the kit and paid a buddy of mine that owns a tint shop $80 bucks to install it.

3M bought ventureshield, so now they make both xpel and venture. From past experience xpel looks way better in the long run but is harder to apply. venture conforms better to curvy bumper surfaces but sometimes gets a hazy look after a while.

I've had clear bra on all my cars for the last 12 years and couldn't be more satisfied.

The Victoria's Secret bras are very nice.
But seriously speaking, 3M clear bra is your best bet.

That clear bra really looks good, if I put a lot of highway miles on I'd consider it. I have a few small nicks and chips but I just shrug it off as patina on an 8 year old car. It ain't no show car but I enjoy every mile I drive.

Worth is always a subjective matter, regardless of topic. If it was universally worth it then we'd all have clear bras. Clearly, that's not the case. They can be difficult to remove. Some don't care for the appearance. They don't prevent larger rock chips. It's really up to you to make the call. Does no one in your area have one? Check your regional subforum. Don't rely just on photos unless you're only going to look at your S in photos.

Nope. Other than backing off.

Because subjective. Never assume that your preference is universal on anything.

Like others said get a clear bra & try not to follow other cars too close & you'll be good.
