Default Thanks to RockBlocker Clear Bra

I was driving behind an SUV yesterday so I could not see anything in front of it's big a$$. Suddenly I see a huge piece of plastic flying out from under his rear wheel (size of half of my bumper) so I have half a second to swerve but it still hit me on the side of my bumper. If it was not for my clear bra I would have to repaint the whole thing. Just posting this little story because what happened was straight ROI on my RockBlocker. Thanks Chad for badass product. Highly recommend it. I am not sponsored by them in any way either; just have to give props when they are due. Not a single paint chip after owning my car for a year.

That's good stuff. I wish I would have gotten one. My front bumper has tons of tiny little chips. I'm going to have it repainted this summer and then I'm getting the clear bra.

The front film is one piece and it is a bltch to put on right. I'd go to professional because there is 90% chance a first-timer will screw it up. Once it is on, ou can't see it and it makes your bumper paint look deeper. Looks ____ you have a thick layer of clear coat.

HUM.....may have to look into that....available for the xB?

I've only had the box a couple of weeks and already some chips. The interstates are horrible here in MS. But the chips I have came from mud falling off a dually transporting a FEMA trailer....

I have had my Rockblocker on for almost 10 months now and i can say it is the best mod that I have done on my tC.

About a month ago i pulled up too far on a high curb. I felt it push back on the front lip. I was sure that i had scraped down past the paint. I got out and looked and I could see marks from the concrete block... no good. I got down and rubbed the marks to see how deep they were and found that the marks came right off! Rockblocker did it again! Thanks Chad, you really do have an awesome product. (FYI, I am not sponsored by Rockblocker either, just a very happy customer)

Thats extremely vague - I have done several Kaminari Kits in custom form since each custom wantd to do something different. One had full hood wrap and the other didnt.
I can list a lot of other but no need to so. More times than not custom body kits are better left to custom work since each customer has a different idea in mind and different cost figures in mind. The kit on my car right now with everything would run $1500-1800 depending on where in the country and who did the work. Yes the Clear Bra would be that much.


Whole Hood
Whoel Front Bumper
A-Pillars
Sunroof Deflector
Sunroof all of it
Mirrors
24 inch fenders
rocker panels all of it
Behind each tire
Rear Bumper Top
Front rear Flare by rear tire
Door edge guards
Blue Heads
Blue Side Mirrors
Blue 3rd BrakeLight
Red reverse tails

Rockblockers prodcut is awesome, I had him do a FULL hood kit on my tC and I love it. I can't imagine how many chips I would have on my car now if I didnt have that on my hood and bumper.....I am not sponsored either BTW.
