I am thinking of getting the clear plastic bra (protective film) installed on my Infiniti G35. Does anyone have pictures of their G35 after the bra has been installed. I can't seem to find any good ones on the web. Also, I heard the plastic bra can vibrate and scratch the paint underneath at high speeds - is this the same experience for others? Thanks!

Seriously, if you go to the G35 Care & Maintenance forum on this board, search on 3M, you'll get a number of postings addressing the 3M clear plastic. I heard the plastic bra can vibrate and scratch the paint underneath at high speeds - is this the same experience for others I believe what you've heard relates to the solid material which is usually black maybe vibrating if it's not attached tightly with the velcro, causing some rubbing. Besides looking like hell, I would NEVER put something like that on my car due to the possibility of paint fading and/or the friction. The clear material, made by 3M and other manufacturers, is far superior and virtually invisible. Personally, I opted for it installed aftermarket since a dealer is going to charge way too much, throwing in his markup, since he either takes it to an installer (like you could) or the installer comes to the dealership. Cut the dealer out and save yourself $. Z

I have the 3M on my front bumper on my 04 G35 Coupe since 03. Looks as good today as the day it was installed. Very expensive but worth every penny. Some clear bra products do not have a protective film on top and although look great upon installation, lose the finish after a year in the sun. I'm very please with the protection and the durability.
