SF Bay Area clear bra installers

I just got a new FR-S and want to get a decent full frontage clear bra done on my car. Premier in Fremont is out of my price range.

Until my garage is fixed the car will be parked outdoors for a few months. I know about the maintenance care involved with having a clear bra on the car.

I was wondering if any of the SF Bay Area FR-S and BRZ owners can give some recommendations on "great" clear bra shops in the area. Thanks.

Ron @ East Bay Autospa, Walnut Creek, installed mine. He uses Xpel and I'm completely happy. His prices vary depending on the coverage you want.

I used Auto Pro Films in Belmont to do my clear bra and window tinting. They also offer mobile service.

i've used Vincent at Omega in Pleasanton many times. He is always booked so if you need it right away, that may be difficult.

I still recommend Premier in Fremont who did my other car, excellent service and quality. I went with another installer on my BRZ and still regret it.

+1000.

Also, can we have a sticky of recommended shops for this kind of stuff? i-club has something similar and it keeps these threads (with the same answers over and over) down to a minimum.

I booked with Vince even before I took delivery of my car!

I got EXPEL done on mine at HD Auto salon but they are south bay (san jose). They did a great job and were willing to work with me on the pricing at different levels of coverage.
