Clear Bra Installer North of LA - Looking for Reccomendation

[jdoublehcubed]

Can anyone recommend a clear bra installer located north of LA. Anywhere from Arcadia over to Glendale or Burbank. Just had the front bumper redone and want to get it protected before I take it back on the freeway to get sand blasted again.

Thanks

Where did you get the bumper redone?
It's on my ToDo list.
Mine looks like the opening sequence in Star Trek.

Had it done in Philly before I left. I picked up the car from the shop Friday night and put it in the car trailer Saturday. I actually had the whole front of the car redone, bumper, hood, quarter panels, a pillars, doors, and a new windshield. An asshole concrete truck driver lost some concrete on the road and I found it.

My experience was to buy a laser-cut bra kit on eBay and install it myself. It was a bit of a gamble because I had no installation experience, I did not know the vender, and I did not know if the clear bra was the right choice. No matter... it all worked out fine.

I also did it for my bride's X5 and it took about 30-45 minutes for each car including hood, quarter panels and mirrors. 18 months later they both still looks great - actually the bras are pretty much invisible.

The kits I ordered came with a roll of the die-cut pieces on paper backing. I wetted the bumper with a little soapy water and laid on the clear bra. My kit came with an included squeegee, making the job a breeze.

I know these kits are listed regularly at around $75.
Here's the X5 one... maybe he can help you out.

So I did that last time around, and wasn't terribly happy with it. I did the hood, fenders and mirrors, which I would consider to be way easier than the bumper. Yes, it protected the car, but I always felt kind of sad when i looked at the front of the hood and saw the imperfections in the clear bra. This time around I want it done right.
