Am I spoiled?

I was coming out of a store today and as I approached my truck the light caught it just right that I could see what looks like the outline of clear protectors right in front of the rear wheels, about eight inches by four inches. So I got to looking all over the truck a little closer, and I also see an outline on the upper bumper (the part that is body colored). The bumper part eventually blends into the rest of the paint job so I'm not sure if it's an actual protector piece or not, but the rear one has a distinct outline all the way around. Is this standard or did I end up with something extra? I couldn't get a good picture of the bumper, but I did get one of the rear piece and I uploaded it to my gallery.

thats the stuff. everyone's got it. the only problem is that it's not big enough to protect the whole area.

if you do the clearbra for the hood, have them (or cut) an extra piece for that area too. mine's chipping like crazy down there...

edit-there's none on the bumpers, just the rear fenders...

I read your thread on your clearbra write up, from your link, Great job! I have been looking at those myself and was woundering how they look. About the wax next to your clearbra, I used to be a profesional detailer, and to get wax build up off, I used a old soft brissel tooth-brush. It works great for around your emblems and mouldings. I won't mess up that beautiful Red Brawn paint!

victor is a good guy, whenever we need to design new clear bra kits for infiniti and subaru when go to his shop to get the patterns and we supply him with the film that he uses. i actually stayed at his house last time i was there, needless to say the clear bra business is treating him well. he uses alot of our patterns especially for his infiniti dealership. along with bmw and infiniti he services pacific porshe also, a client of ours that we sent victors way. anyhow hit him up he does great work and tell him mark from "proform" says whats up.

06nismofrontier - if your kit on the froniter has a "swoop" on the hood and the fenders angle back that is a kit that i designed. if so how do you like it?

I'm not sure what style, but I'm almost certain it's the same kit, heres a pic of the headlights he wrapped for me.

Have you considered designing something for the A pillars and the leading edge of the roof on the Frontier? These areas are prone to attack from bugs. I tried to buy some pieces from TheDingCompany but they wanted a pound of gold for them.

That won't protect against chips will it?
