2013 C350 Coupe 4matic
Does anyone have experience with the clear bra on a white car in the north with salt and snow? I recently moved to Buffalo from the south and will be picking up a new C350 4matic in polar white and am contemplating getting a clear bra.

i used clear bras on my cars since '98 and the salt doesn't seem to effect them. i do keep a fresh coat of carnauba paste wax on my cars every 3 months through. hope this helps!

Your car looks amazing - thanks for the pics! Your guys don't happen to have partners on the East Coast do they? I'd love to go to them but I'm in NJ unfortunately.. also if you could PM me the cost as well so I know what to look for, that would be great. Thanks!
The following areas will be covered:
hood, fenders, front bumper, mirrors, upper rear bumper, complete rockers, behind rear tires and headlamps.
I did not apply the film to the hood or fenders. Only the front bumper, headlight and the mirrors.
We will see what happen, thanks.

If you don't plan to ever remove the bra it is great. My father purchased a 4.8 X5 and the previous owner had a clear bra installed. He didn't want the clear bra on the car so I had it taken off. Since the adhesive they use is so strong you can't simply take it off if you don't want it anymore. I had to have it removed by a detail shop who then buffed and waxed the entire car. A bit of a process to remove it.

Showa, thanks again for the contact for Mike @ Elevated Auto Concepts.
I dropped my car off with him friday and picked it back up on saturday. I did the clear bra on the entire front bumper, hood, DRLs, side mirrors, and door cups - i had him wrap around the edges too. He also painted my grill, same as yours, and put my clear sidemarkers in.

I'm very happy with it. He and I are going to work on a dual exhaust for "casper" now.![Smilie](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
P.S. They were working on a Tiffany color 3m matte wrap for a Lambo Gallardo when I arrived, geebus that car!!! And it belonged to a girl, which was AMAZING! LOL
