Educate me on CLEAR BRA'S

[CON VERT]

Has anyone had this done and your results also recomendations of shops you have dealt with, best products etc ?? thinking about having the Caddy front done ??? Thanks, G>

[ZR]

From what I've seen on other peeps rides, key is to find experienced hands that use nothing but high end / won't discolor products.

[MUSTANGWOP]

Any of them that I have seen no matter how low or high the quality will eventually show a dirt line where the film starts/ends.

[redo75]

I thought you meant on a beach.

[HyperGT]

try The Refinery in Toronto. He does amazing work, place speaks for itself. He did my Porsche and will be doing my Mustang. Both PPF and ceramic coat.

[xeninworx]

I’ve always gone to Joe at AMP Motorsport in Concord/Vaughan area. 3 of my cars and both of my brothers cars. They do high end vehicles too and also dealership requests.

Whatever you do, don’t do half cuts. Go for full coverage. Doing a half cut on a hood is silly as most likely a rock will hit the unprotected area.

[CON VERT]

Is PPF the way to go , I see some vinyl ? that also looks good .

[xeninworx]

PPF yes if you want paint protection. Vinyl if you want to change the colour on your car without having to paint. If you don’t like it, tear it off.

XPEL PPF has a gloss finish and a matte finish as well.

[hsousa88]

Definitely don’t do a half cut.. my buddy had it done on his old ride and like stated above.. 4/5 years later a giant black dirt mark right across the hood.

[Quicksilver]

I had my Jag done last summer. A place called Spa for Cars on Wellington in Aurora. Fair price, excellent work. Without it the little parking lot altercation would have been far worse

[xeninworx]

Ceramic Coating and PPF should also be covered by insurance. My wife’s car was covered by insurance after the 2 accidents on her Accord.

[CON VERT]

Thought I'd revive this thread, & see if anyone else had it done , closer to Ajax would help, there is lots of places but a recommendation would help allot ! a 10 year warranty is not worth a shit if they close their doors in a year or two !!!

I just had my Tiguan done at Amp Motorsports last week. It came out perfect. I went with the Xpel Ultimate Plus film. I am pleased with their work so far.

[xeninworx]

You could call AMP and ask them if they know reputable shops in your area or they can come to you as they do mobile service as well.

That’s actually how I ended up going to AMP. Called a different shop initially and they recommended me to AMP because they were booked up at the time.

[Scrape]

Here are some quick photos of some of the work that was done. I am hard pressed to tell where they applied the product on the vehicle. I literally had to feel for it. Now if only my shoulder would heal I can detail it and seal the paint. :( :( :(

The guy who did my car wrapped it around and into the seam of the joints. You cannot tell where it stops.

[Scrape]

So they did custom cuts for you. They told me that these are factory programmed cuts. I am OK with this.

[xeninworx]

The precuts are fine with me too. It’s so close to the edge that getting a chip or scratch there is highly unlikely. Not sure if the preprogrammed cuts allow for extra to do a wrap around.

Did they have to keep it overnight?

[Scrape]

No sir. I told them that I would drive it home and let it sit for 24 hours which I did to be safe.

Already got 2 paint chips and that's in 1000k's f'ing Ajax is under construction almost everywhere , endless trail of dump trucks up and down Westney and Salem these days !

I'm not criticizing. This was the first time I've had it done, and that's the way they did it. I knew nothing about the process, what's good, bad, or ugly. I wouldn't have known to ask for it or not. But, no. F-types are not exactly found on every corner, and they did not have a pre-cut kit available.

[CON VERT]

Left a message for at AMP !

[Scrape]

No worries sir. All good over here. It's good that they wrapped over the edges for you.

Joe is a good guy. Quinn (jibijibb) works there. Mention TMC and they will hook you up.

Does he read his email regularly ? my tire guy keeps telling me that email is now snail mail, only old farts use it, same as facebook, I don't even have data on my cell phone !

For AMP?

[Scrape]

I just call him. He picks up right away.

[CON VERT]

I spoke to Joe all is good, he's just a busy guy, which is good, XT6 front is being done on Tues next week, he even arranged a rental for me, I'll let you know how it turns out on Wed ! Thanks Again to all that responded, that's what makes this club so great ! great folks with even greater knowledge !

Awesome. When I went to him 4 years ago he took the car the next day. Since then he’s gotten much busier. If you see a 2006 silver Civic Si with HFP skirts and HFP wheels there, that was my old car.

[CON VERT]

The Caddy is in getting done, full front , mirrors, door sills and the luggage strip on the rear bumper ! stay tuned for results !

Seen it on Instagram.

[CON VERT]

Can u post them ??

[xeninworx]

Wouldn’t know how to. It’s in their feed.

[CON VERT]

I let them keep mine for 2 nights, it was going to be finished late today , & Ajax to Concord and return at 4PM is not my idea of a good time, he was good enough to pay the extra day for the rental car ! So far great people to deal with !

[Scrape]

I saw it too. Just the quarter of the fender. I got no love at all. Boring vehicle for them.

It’s all about customer service and satisfaction with Joe.

[CON VERT]

I still haven't meet Joe , as he was not there when I dropped it off, I mainly dealt with Quinn / who was also nice enough to drop me off at the car rental , nice to be treated like your a person and not a $$$$ for that day ! at least they don't appear to be that way ! great customer service means great referrals !

[xeninworx]

Yeah they’re good guys. When they worked on the stang they finished early on the Friday so Quinn drove the stang to my house and Joe picked him up.

[JZ67]

don't forget to post some pictures.

[CON VERT]

All Done and I am Extremely happy with the results, u gotta look real close to see anything, they did a beautiful job,
Thanks Again to all that directed me that way & Thanks to Joe & Jibjibb for taking care of everything ! WELL DONE "AMP'"Motorsports ~

Pic's too follow !

[CON VERT]

Sorry for the cell phone pic's ! very cloudy , l

XT6's are huge vehicles. It doesn't seem as big in the photos.

[CON VERT]

Yes , they do take up allot of real estate, still trying to get used to the electric power steering, it's a little touchy !
