$$$

There is another place off Northern Blvd & Utopia.
Tinter opened up a *retail* front.
Does handwashes and clearbra afaik.


DD will run you $$. They are not cheap but if you have the $$, they are worth every penny. They will polish and make the paint *perfect* under the area where the 3M will cover. If you are price shopping, I would not bother with Detailing Dynamics.

As well, everything is CUSTOM. Nothing is done via a cutter. They remove headlights, grills, etc and tuck all film around and inside the panels. Top $$ get's top quality.

YMMV, but they are the ONLY place I would go for a clearbra install in the Northeast.

You can also try reaching out to phil@detailersdomain. He appears to have a relationship with a clearbra installer.

If you do decide to go to DD, ask for Matt or Eddie.
They ain't cheap but there is no one else I would recommend on the East Coast .

No cookie cutter kits that will have exposed edges.

imo, i dont like them at all, ud be best to leave it off, i bought mine on the car and i hate it. It looks like one big scratch over your hood and fender. I would rather just repaint it if gets bad.

I've had the 3M on my 2001 and we put it on our 2006 325i and now on my new (to me) 2004 X5. Without a doubt it is a very nice product. The 325i was used for freeway driving for a year and it made a night and day difference in preventing the rock chips on the hood and headlights. We didn't do this on the 2000 323i and it was pretty torn up when we sold it. HIGHLY recommend this product and really it's not that noticeable.

I paid $595 for the X5 install. Was $800 on the 325i as we had door edges done, behind door grab handles, trunk sill, and below the gas filler door along with hood, headlights, mirrors, fogs.
