Thumbs up Clear bra to the rescue

Hello folks. For over two decades, our company has specialized in Porsches and we've gone through many evolution and adaptations to the marketplace. As cars evolve, so do our clients' needs.

One important aspect that most are now familiar with is protecting the front end, or entire car, with Paint Protection Film, or Clear Bra.

Below is an excellent example of the real-life performance of how the film takes the abuse of everyday driving.

Client was driving down freeway and a hubcap flew from another car and hit the front left portion of his 991 GTS bumper. The hubcap managed to tear into the clear bra and break one of the blades on front bumper intake opening.

Below is how easily things were taken back to pre-incident condition without compromising the originality of the vehicle:


Damaged clear bra removed safely to reveal untouched paint on bumper. Just a small area where adhesive left behind, but that was easily polished off:



New plastic grill shipped direct from Porsche warehouse:



Front bumper removed to properly install new plastic grill:



Existing clear bra showed signs of wear, so we addressed those imperfections as part of our Phase 2 - Rejuvenation service:

Before:



Final results:






No body work, no hassles with insurance, client dropped off on a Saturday, took one of our loaner cars home to LA, came back following Saturday based on his schedule, and all is well.

While the bumper cover was off you should have suggested installing grills to protect those radiators.

The grills were the best modification I've done to my car.

How does one go about rejuvenating a clear bra, if need be? Didn't know you could do that.
