hey rockblocker what is your phone number im going to give you a call right now if you dont mind.

 

Look up^

 

If it's what it sounds like, the finger prints are just that - if the installer touched the back of the film, especially with any sort of dust on their hands, this kind of thing could happen. If the dealer is still cooperating, I'd push for him to redo any parts that aren't good, but don't ask for a refund. At least not yet. It will just ____ him off. Let him have a chance to make it right. Some of the bubbles and swirls MIGHT go away, and if they don't, at least you'll have done what he said.

 

thanks guys i'll contact him.

 

well xpel definately agrees that there is a problem with the kit.

 

Well that's good... at leat everyone is on the same page.

 

so the clear bra can be treated just like the paint can? clayed,polished ect?

 

I wouldnt clay it unless you want more issues, but yes you can wash and wax the product.

 

yea i dont plan on messing with it until its all fixed but i wont clay it,lol.

 

Darn, I thought you were talking about the type of Clear Bra
in Clear Bra Guys avatar.

 

How much are you guys paying to get front end done?

 

I paid like $250 to get my 3M kit on eBay. Then i paid another like $250 to get it installed. So about $500. I've heard cheaper, but I've also got no complaints about mine. Ask the RockBlocker folks how much they're charging - they seem to do good work and they've done a few tCs by now. I think the place I went charged me more because they'd never done a tC before and it's a fairly hard car to do the install on. Whatever you pay, it's worth it.

 

hey guys i have heard of this product and i want to get it but i dont know of anyone that does it around my area...i live in haverhill mass anyone in my area that knows a shop or of someone that does this let me know please..thanx

 

Check the link on the 3M website. That's how I found my installers. It will give you all the certified installers that are close to your location. They're usually found in shops that do window tint. Also note that these are just the CERTIFIED installers - other people might do it, but these people do a good job (and you may pay more for it).

i found out that the dealer that i bought my car from doe sit and its $300...i could buy the stuff myself and put it on myself and save money....lol

 

If your dealer does the whole front (fascia, first 20 or so inches of hood, backs of mirrors) and it's $300, that's a GREAT deal. If it's $300 plus materials, that still isn't that bad considering it's from the dealer. If you do it yourself, you'll pay $250 or so for a decent precut kit off ebay, and then you'll screw it all up since the car is hard to do and I'm guessing you've never done this before. This isn't a cheap thing to do, but when it's done right it's totally worth it. If you touch the back, you end up with fingerprints, and that's assuming you don't end up with a ton of bubbles too. Talk to the people on this board who have paid full price for an install and had it come out bad - at least they have osmeone to take it back to. If your dealer does it for $300, DO IT!

 

yah i know it sound slike a good idea

 

this is the response i got back from the dealer...


About the blemishes. if you are not happy about the bra next weekend would be good for you to come by and let me take a look see. your vehicle has alot of disadvantages to having bra put on. the color for one, the difficulty level of the front bumper cover and the size of the film 24" kit. but regardless we can look at it and if we cant come to an agreement i'll be glad to remove it for you. thanks Scott

 

i dont know what exactly to do if he can't fix it and will remove it cause there are no 3m dealers near me. im definately going to get a bunch of chips driving anywhere

 

Irreligious, I am glad to see that he is willing to work with you. If anyone else is looking for a kit for their car let us know. We will do what we can to find an installer for you and beat any price on Ebay.

Are you sure that isnt just for the hood and fenders? That sounds about right for a dealer. Make sure to ask a lot of questions about it as well. Never hurts

Peace
