Z06Fever! Well, why not? Having one of these toys is definitely an illness for which there is no cure, so let's talk about this specific malady. |

Scheduled Clear Bra Install
I scheduled to have a clear bra put on the ZO6 Monday. Ryan, from Auto Paint Guard is going to do it.
I plan on having the nose, the mirrors and the rockers covered.
Any advice?

Yes, don't do it! I have seen many clear bra's on corvettes. It looks like someone put a straight line scratch on the car. Go out and get a Colgan Bra and Mirror Covers. Put them on when you need them. Take them off the rest of the time. The clear bra is really noticeable. Just my opinion.

I have detailed many cars with clear bra's on them,they all do what there suppose to do,but make sure that the area that the bra is going on is cleaned and degreased.Make sure there is NO polish or wax on the area's.The polish and wax will become foggy though out time,you can protect the clear bra with wax after it is applied,it wont last as long,but the area is small enough to apply it more then you would if the bra was not on.Also if there are swirl marks or lite scratches on the area that the bra is being put on,get rid of them first,they will show under the bra.Hope this helped

Ryan is who installed mine and I'm Very Satisfied. I was advised to clay bar the areas where the bra was to be applied.
The leather bras can scratch and wear your finish. If they get wet ,they have to come until dry and most don't fit properly and. I had a Calgon Custom Bra prior to purchasing my clear vinyl one and would not go back to it

Ryan did mine almost 1.5 years ago and its the best investment in the car so far. I did half the hood, lower bumper, headlights, mirrors, rocker panels and ihad him cut a little piece for the door recess also.
Ryan is an excellent installer and your clear bra will be almost invisible.
