#314 of 474 Splash Guards by tlgal Oct 30, 2005 (11:55 am)
Hi Gang, I posted this on another forum, but think this might be a better area to pose this question.   Hi All You TL Owners!    I'm leaning away from getting the splash guards. I'm going with the White Diamond Pearl and think the black spash guards stand out a bit too much. Are they really worth it? I currently have a white civic and I haven't really had problems with chips and scratches.    Any input is appreciated!

Replying to: tlgal (Oct 30, 2005 11:55 am) I seen it on a white TL and looks fine...and makes the car looks a tad lower to the ground. I believe it is because it is near the black tires. But it is personal taste....as I never did like my guards to be body matched. However...it will definitely keep you car cleaner by not having water splashes on the fender.

Replying to: tlgal (Oct 30, 2005 11:55 am) I am speaking from experience-GET THEM.   I owned a Pearl White Mazda Millennia and now a White Diamond Pearl 03 TLS.   They both sported the black splash guards and it looked perfectly fine.   The major purpose of these is to protect the cars paint from all the salt and sand that gets kicked back fron the wheels.It also prevents tiny rocks form hitting the guys windsheild that's behind you.
#317 of 474 how long to wait for waxing? by mdw1000 Oct 31, 2005 (4:38 pm)
How long did you guys wait after getting the car for waxing? One person told me to wait a couple months, and another told me they are fine to wax right away. We have an 05 TL we bought in September.   thanks!
#318 of 474 Window Tint by nbw Nov 01, 2005 (9:52 am)
I want to add security to my black 06 TL. what type of window tint do others recomend ? I don't want to go with limo black but something fairly dark would do.   Any thoughts ? Replies to this message: 95_tlc (Nov 01, 2005 12:45 pm) nbw (Nov 01, 2005 4:51 pm)

Replying to: nbw (Nov 01, 2005 9:52 am) I would go w/ 20% on the rear windows and back window and 35% on the front. I have an 05 Anthracite and it looks really good. Make sure you check what the local allowances are for tinting - any tinting shop should know. Replies to this message: nbw (Nov 01, 2005 4:51 pm)

Replying to: 95_tlc (Nov 01, 2005 12:45 pm) When you say rear.. you are talking about the rear side ? Front being the front sides ? Sorry to ask the question but....
#321 of 474 3M Clearmask by mgordon1 Nov 03, 2005 (11:46 am)
Hello to all of you. I am would like to know your opinion about the 3M Clearmask and any product that will protect paint. Is the Clearmask worth the cost and has anyone applied the product? I've heard there is a product that will protect your paint and make cleaning easier. Is this the Scotchgard product? Is it expensive? Where can you have it applied? My 2006TL w/Navi is due Nov.9th and planning a trip to San Francisco/Saucilito on the 19th. Would like to have my car protected before the trip. Thanks for all of your tips and comments. I think you've taught me more than the dealer knows. Replies to this message: bplayer (Nov 03, 2005 8:11 pm) mgordon1 (Nov 03, 2005 9:29 pm)

Replying to: mgordon1 (Nov 03, 2005 11:46 am) It is commonly known as Clear Bra, and a search should turn up lots of comments. It provides protection from stone chips. You choose the amount of coverage, e.g. hood, fender, front bumper, lights, wing mirrors, rocker panels, and door handles. Obviously more coverage means more dollars.   Installation is done by many tint shops, as well as speciality installers.   I had just my hood and fender covered for a few hundred dollars. It took about 1 hour. The bumper would be double the price, and close to the cost of repainting it completely. Replies to this message: mgordon1 (Nov 03, 2005 9:29 pm)
