Have you (or anybody for that matter) used the clear spray on stuff? I was thinking about it but was nervous.

I did. It's actually really just a film. It's like... A layer of coat that's kind spongy. However it gives you that plastic kind of shine once dried. So I would say it's best for small areas. Cuz it's not pretty like clear bra or opti-coat, it's gonna stand out a bit more under different lighting condition.

Before it's completely dried, it has this gel kind of texture if u rob on it. I haven't test how hard it is once it's totally dried cuz I don't wanna respray the thing. lol

3M product thou, not gonna hurt if you try. 😁

It did come off really easy when it wasn't completely dried yet. I don't know how it is after totally dried thou.

You can check the reviews.

Me too!

Well, maybe 2nd bumper.... this one is deeply scratched in bottom.... really, really bad. Also has like 8 big chips.

$200 paint job+3m spray or new bumper for $200 from ft86 members and touch up+3m spray? I might as well wait to go all out.

I'll wait for that...i hope, but I am gonna wrap mid bottom soon black. Looks so mean on a white FRS... on the BRZ it looks ewww .





Check it out guys, looks so smexy! (taken from here)
