My body shop removed the USA bumperettes and filled the holes, and two years later it is totally undetectable. There are a few Rennlisters that have actually done this job themselves (John D. comes to mind).
To be on the safe side, I'll flat-bed mine as well. we can have our flat-beds meet in Paso Robles, drink some wine, then have then flat-bedded home. Perfect.

I like the flat-bed idea. No tickets, no DUIs. I'll drink to that.

Hi Jauder, David,
Spoke with shop on Tuesday. She said that they are still on schedule to paint it by Friday. I'm calling again of Friday just to be sure. I also want to make sure all the goodies are installed then it's photo-time. Still won't drive it until the clear bra goes on though.
Will keep you folks posted.

Pong,
We're all anxious to see the pictures and hear your report. I'm seriously thinking of clear bra for Rufus after the CTR bumpers go on. Its just so damned expensive... like the price of a respay or two.

Steve,
Who are you thinking about using for the Clear Bra? I had xpel and loved it. If you are serious maybe we can get some discounts if we do both (mine and Rufus)car a the same time. I won't be ready to install until Nov time frame.

Tony,
I'd love to find a way to get it done right, and save a few bucks. I'm worried that by November, I'll have already collected a few rock chips, however. Where or what is Expel? (Is that the product or the shop?)
See my new thread on removing the washer nozzles. Have you thought of that? What do you think?

Steve,
Not sure about "xpel", in any case... when I purchased my car I had Eric (RL Member ins Chicago) install the 3M clear bra on my car prior to driving back to CA. He was his own business and was called Xpel.
I still think we can make a deal with whom ever we decide to go to and do the install at a different time.
About removing the washer nozzles, Scott (Bradford) gave me the idea a few weeks back but it was too late for me as my car was painted 2 weeks ago.... but i would have done the same.
