Default SoCal clear bra installer recommendation / question

Need/ want to get the front end wrapped. Any suggestions on the better shops? I see premier is gone from oc.

Also, what areas do I want wrapped on these cars? Street + occasional track use.

Thanks

Try Protective Film Solutions in Santa Ana. I used Premiere before and PFS is just as good.

Ultimate Shield!

I am extremely particular and Sean has done several of my cars. I made the mistake of having a clear film installed in Florida when I bought my CLK black series and it was a disaster. I couldn't look at the car, so Sean to the rescue!

Sean is not only a class guy, his work is by far the best!

Appreciate the responses. Have contacted these guys for quotes and will go view their work.

On the setup, I get front bumper, full hood, full front fenders, will replace stock side guards. What other areas are critical?

I always got full car if tracked.

Must:

Full front
A pillar
1 foot on the roof.
hips completely
Rear wing

So just cover the car, and don't worry about the paint, but that's just me.

Door sill. Lot of abrading there if people that must drive your car are not careful getting in/out.

i used bain.. he came to my place.. then he came 3 weeks later for touch up... great sevice. Fair pricing.

Clear films get beat up esp on track condition. They get nicked and marked. Consider re-doing the doorsill, fron/rearor hip, rear bumper and sideskirt every couple years. Peel them off and detail and get it done again.

Thanks for the plug!!!

Here are a couple of examples of the level of detail in our installs. It truly is for those that are OCD and want the attention to detail. Please let me know if any of you have any questions:
