Clear bra on white Car ratio poll

Please vote only if you have a white G37/G35 with or without the clear bra installed. Also, any regrets getting it--(turning slightly yellow; don't see much different compares to a white car without a bra, etc).

For the other owners, you may also tell us about your opinions.

Most of my friends against it for:
-it won't be as shinny on the clear bra area
-it might show more yellow down the road on a white car;
-won't add any value when selling the car
-expensive
-can see the line up close or in certain angle
-can always use touch up paint to fix those chips.

Thanks alot.

<hmm...not sure if the poll --yes/No shows up, first time making a poll thread>

I now wish that I would have installed. 5k miles and numerous stone chips on the front air dam. This paint is very soft.

had it for about a month now. would NEVER think twice to put it on again. great product, saved my car at least twice now. if yellowing scares you find an installer that has a lifetime warranty thats what I did. cant recommend it enough! the line is BARELY visible if you get a good installer.

Thanks for the reply so far.

The shop that I asked had lifetime warranty on labor, but the film only had 5 years.

Didn't have it installed. Im kinda having regrets. I have 6k on my car, and i have some chips.

The touch up paint sucks, being that the IP is a three stage paint.

All of your concerns PALE in comparison to what your car will look like in 18months without it. Get the clearbra before it is too late!

will do it for all my ride in the future....no regrets getting it, can't really tell if the car has clear bra until up close, really really easy to clean off bugs, mine cost $500 installed (whole front bumper, side fenders, headlights, 24" hood, side mirrors) i would say that is cheap

I think that it will blend in nicely on white.

My buddy had it on his white Evo and it looked like sheeeeit. I think it depends on the brand of stuff you get on it. I have a white Tacoma with it on for over 30k miles and no problems. He had his done by some company that was using some cheap **** stuff, so that's probably y.
