No, Mike. Work not started, just got estimate this week and insurer's appraiser was out yesterday. My car has a clear bra, but entire left side needs to be repainted so part of the bra has to be removed. Car is drivable so no problems there. Just thinking ahead about where to get new bra install.

I had the 3M product put on by Skip Vachon at Protective Film Technologies when I got the car new in 2006. He's the owner, as I recall. The work was excellent as far as I can tell. Not sure if there is now a better product out there or if he works with other materials. His phone is 703 944 7076. He is in No. VA but came out to Rockville to do the work. Dealer recommended him.

Web site was www.pftfilms.com
