Anyone know of a good place to install a 3M Clear Bra in the Tampa area?

Reeve's did mine for about $800 which included 3/4 of the hood, mirrors, all front-facing surfaces, fore and aft quarter panels around the front wheels, aft quarters on the rear wheels. Now they actually just contracted this out, I'm going to see if I can figure out for you who really did the work because I spoke with the guy twice since the original dealer for my car tried to charge me $1500 for the same thing and they were going to have the same guy do it! :lol2: Before I agreed though, I got the new quote from Reeves and then the same guy calls me to set up an appointment and he's like hey, I just talked to you. The place has something to do with either campers or those topper things you can put on pickups so I'll thumb through superpages later to see if any of the names ring a bell.

I spoke to a guy from Auto Paint Guard who suggested that I use Venture film instead of 3M. He said that the Venture film is truly invisible, as opposed to the 3M.

Never heard of it though.

Hmm, yeah that would make me nervous; the only way it could be invisible is if it is optically clear and extremely thin, and thin is not always better when you want the stuff to keep rocks and things off your paint. You've seen my car though, you can really not tell it's there unless you come up and look at the seam going across the hood.

I know Greg got film on his 360cs, he used someone closer to you though since he lives down that way.
