Full front end mask

Full front end mask

Postby kgzero1 » Tue May 03, 2005 9:09 am

I searched but didn't find anything really relating to my question on this forum so I will just ask.

I was wondering if any of you know where it would be possible to get a full front end mask (other than at the dealer) for the solara. I want to find something cheaper. Or do any of you know anything about a clear bra for it.

By the way I plan on being a Solara owner within the next 2 weeks. I am planning on getting a Manual 4 banger, either SE or SE sport.

Thanks.

3M company manufactures the clear bras. I found some here.

I noticed you're in Burbank, these guys are local at:

Junest and I live in Valley Village (right next door to Burbank) and she was the first to hit them up (along with Milt), she got the blue covers over her fogs and they do look good.

Cool! Thanks for the info. How much did you guys pay for the covers? I will be hitting them up as soon as I get my Solara. :fadein:

::Edit::

Never mind I just checked the website. It is a lot cheaper than I was expecting! Astro, thanks for this info. You made my day! You are awsome.

Nope, but they do blend better with the headlights. I noticed before the were really yellow.

Glad you asked. I'll have to get one of these kits for the hood, after I get it repainted. Yeesh, these tings have the thinnest paint I have ever seen on a car. Mine is almost scrubbed off from highway driving.

You should see the paint on the Scion's, they suck. I have an xA, the clear coat scratches very easily and the paint is not difficult to chip.

Hmmm, I've seen posts here that say we have the best paint in the industry. HA

I've heard similar easily chipped, thin paint complaints from other manufacturers so it seems pretty widespread.

I found a local installer in my part of the world that does Invinca-Sheild. I guess every mfg buys the 3M film to be marketed under their names. This is one of the reasons I haven't picked my ride up yet, I want the film installed the next day before any real stone/bug damage can occur.
