I believe Xpel dealers/installers have one but its more expensive than the 3M products. Most others I've checked with say they'll have one soon.

I had mine done on Thursday. They had to do a custom digitization for it. They also made me the doglegs in front of the rear wheels from the body line down.. Now the gills are protected

Had mine done in 3M yesterday. The digitized pattern/template has finally come out. Did whole front fascia, partial hood including first extractor on the insert, front quarters, and gills. On the Ashen Gray any seams virtually disappear.

Dealer didn't even know what a 3M clear bra was. Got it done by the same guys that did my previous Camaro SS and my JeepGC. Ultra Shield of Hampton Roads. These guys are real artists.

Do you think you will have issues later on with dirt build up on the lines of the clear cover??

I had mine done a month ago and everything was computer cut. I posted pictures of the procedure on this site.

can you guys give a little more detail on the washing and waxing of the car?
I was told you have to mask it whenever you put wax on the car, does the same hold true when washing the car? |

I have the Expel self healing film and I just wash it with the rest of the car, no special treatment. I spray on a liquid wax afterward. The paste and liquid waxes leave a white line when they dry along the edge.

I was just thinking that I'll place some of that clear film underneath and around the door handles to prevent scratches from use. Has anyone tried
this and found it to be pretty affective?
