Sorry to hear about the problems your having with the clear bra. I really believe the skill of the installer has a lot to do with the quality of the job and how it holds up over the long run. I had a VentureShield pre-cut kit put on my 05 G35 Coupe and I was very happy with it. When I bought my new G37xS sedan I had a VentureShield custom cut bra installed. I've had friends and a couple of guys from next door look it over and they all comment how it's so hard to see, so I point out the edges of the film just so they believe it's there. VentureShield will be one of the first things I'll be doing to any new cars I buy in the future. Please don't think I'm knocking the 3M film, all I'm saying is I've had great luck with the VentureShield and its installer.

Same here, but I've got about $1400 worth.... whole front of my car is wrapped like a condum, pulled the factory pieces off the lower rear quarters and Venture Shielded the entire area up to the midline.

ok.. took the G back and had the guy redo this Bra. first off, the mirrors a completly covered now. he had to cut them on the car. he re-did the bottom so that if fully covered and the part the was flapping on the wind an collecting dirt behind hit, re-did!

he says he called 3M to complain about the kit not being cut correctly.

bottom line - it is now looking how it should have the first time.

has anyone used the XPEL kit? I am looking to get this on my vert. I have a black vert, so I have already noticed a few spots. I need the bra.
