Clear Bra?

Just got the call. It's available to pick up! Debating if I should have them install the clear bra. In my area (so cal) the prices I've called for comparison were pretty similar prices. :-/ Anybody get their clear bra installed by the dealership? If so, what are your impressions. Also, advice. Not exactly how much I should shield. Thanks in advance!

I dk. I passed on it knowing they would probably do mediocre job. They wanted almost a grand for it. Call me cheap but I'd rather do it aftermarket.

Yeah, those were my concerns too. But the aftermarket prices I've called were just about the same price as the dealership. I figure I might as well go with the dealership and get the price impounded into my car payment with the low APR (2.99%). That and perceived factory warranty benefits...

If they are cutting it on the car then run away as fast as you can, there has already been one fr-s "cut" up around here. If its a pre-cut then thats up to you. I decided to forgo it with a black fr-s, hate the lines showing more than my future chips

Just a follow up: they don't even have the wrap in stock. So much for that option. ;(

Still would like to invest in one though, time shop around. In other news, first thing imma do when I drive her off is get her tinted up! Her $80 Welcome Present.
