Default Protective Front end Film

Hi

I Just Joined the group as I picked up my 2003 yesterday. It is a perfect car, a 2003 with only 5500 mile on it......sweet!!

My question..... There is a protective film on the front of the hood, the front end and the tops of the fenders. My questions.....

1) was this an option?

2) Can it be removed?

3 Should I remove It?

I I live in Florida and as Much As I try to park in the shade, the car will be in the sunshine.

Any comment or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

The Captain

That clear film is a clearbra (at least $500 or more) and that is why the car looks so nice. They protect your paint from scratches, chips, etc...definitely keep it on. It is a great product.

and to add to the above, i would clean and protect it like you do the rest of the car.
zaino is a great product for protecting clear bras, imo
you can use plexus to clean it, but usually your normal car shampoo should work fine
