I have a black car, I just got the hood and front bumper painted. My old bumper had 1,000,000 rock chips on it, I want to protect it. My question is, does anyone have one? if so:

How do you like it?
How well does it work?
How noticeable is it?
did you install it?
-if yes, was it difficult?
-if no, where did you have it done?
average cost?


lol I know, there's a few questions, but all help is appreciated.

I have had two clear bras installed by Premier in freemont. They are expensive but do great work. One was around $950, and the other around $1,500. They are hardly perceptible, even if you know where to look. Regardless of who does the install, black will make the bra more visible. Overall, I really like clear bras. I don't drive my car much, but I feel that it does offer a lot of protection from rock chips. Before I had it installed, I never liked to drive my car because I was afraid I'd get a rock chip... now I can drive it stress free!

On a side note, my brother has done two installs himself. If you try this, I would recommend getting a pre-cut "pattern" and watch a few videos on line. I think they're kind of hard to install, but if you do your homework and take your time, you could probably do a decent job.
