Has anyone tried a clear bra?

I just picked up my truck on Monday, and although I made sure to grab a bottle of touch up paint right away, I'd like to protect my beautiful new truck as much as possible. My question is, has anyone used a clear bra before? If so, what was your experience?

Fredericks of Hollywood is a nice place to find one. lol jk

My brother has one on his Titan and really likes it. I plan on getting one as well. I was planning on having the dealer do mine but hopefully someone will chime in with a website, might be cheaper.

All the websites I've seen are really expensive. There are some on ebay, precut for the vehicle or uncut rolls. Maybe I'll buy one of those and be the guineau pig. Would you cover a chrome bumper? It only gets bug splatters on it right, or will it chip too? My bumpers have always been matched to the body, so this is my first chrome bumper experience.

I have my 1st clear bra on my truck and the 2nd one on my car. I installed them myself. I bought the kits from thedingcompany.com but I would buy it elsewhere the next time I bought one.

What's the use?

See if you can spot the clear bra on the hood and fender. I have the extended coverage version.

My 07 came with the hood and fenders already done. When I went to get the front windows tinted I noticed the tint shop did clear bra too. I had them take the chip guard on the leading edge of the rear wheel well and replace it with larger pieces. See the below picture for an outline of the new piece. This is the first vehicle I've had it on, but I know it works.

I need to do that to my truck once I fix the chips.
