I'm having it put on my car before I pick it up from the dealership. My question is. When I wax the car (say with Zaino) will there be a real noticable difference where the wax is applied to the paint, and where the paint is covered with the clear bra. I would hate to have a real nice shiney car except for the very front of it.

 

No need to Zaino your car prior to install. The material adheres better without it.

 

Yeah, and shop around. Your dealer is probably subbing it out. What are they charging you?

 

you can wax the 3m stuff as well... takes on wax just like paint.

 

Thanks, that's what I wanted to know.

Woodson: I shopped around at a bunch of local places and they all charge around $400-$700 for it. So I asked my dealership where they have it done, and it's at a reputable place, so I'm just having them take care of it. It's going to be $550. That's for the side mirrors, headlights, hood, fenders, bumper, inside the door handle area.

 

good choice, i use to have one of those on my car and it saved my front from chips often =-)

 

Euclid: Good choice on the areas to cover. I did the same, except for the headlights. I was told the 3M will yellow after a while due to the high temperature of the HID headlights.
