He did a Great job
Do you mind sharing who did your clear bra? I'm in the Bay Area and would appreciate a reference. Sounds like you're happy with the installation.

Hi Roost,
The clear bra and vinyl wrap guys I went to is "go wraps" in milpitas. Highly Recommended. If you ever want to see my car to see, let me know. They stick by their work and he takes his time when doing the wrap - he isn't pressured by time. I stayed there and had a 3 hour conversation with him while he was wrapping and this was after closing hours.

Always look for a guy who will give you the best performance, sometimes cheaper is not the way to go.

Thank you very much. I'll look up "go wraps" and give them a call. Great to hear they take the time to get it right. Thanks for the offer to let me see your car. I might take you up on it if there's a wait list for installation. I'd prefer to get it done sooner or later to avoid chip and emotional bruising. 😄

If your only doing fronts...he got me an appointment in a week. But let them know. It's really one guy doing all the work, I liked that better than going to a place where it was like a factory.

Let's talk offline.

This is how it looks like.

I can swap the seats to standard again in about 5 minuts time if i want to do long journey or so.

This should help. These are all my photos i have taken thus far, look for the photos that have the black gloss.

Also,
here is a video walkaround:

I finally started to push my car a bit further, although I'm in break in period still, i'm starting to get used to the car and not baby it. I have enough protection in the car.

I'm starting to notice things I didn't notice when i was just driving it like a gangsta.

1) Super Nimble....you point, it turns - no questions asked.
2) the back end turns very well and just give a bit of gas to get the car to turn just a touch.
3) it's FUN.

If i could buy a new 1M coupe off factory or new M2 off factory.

It would be the 1M Coupe no doubt about that.

Much more a drivers car than the M2 Coupe!
