Here's something to think about. I have installed a 3M clear bra on several cars in the last 3 or 4 years. Lexus GS350, Cadilliac CTS, Corvette, and Mini Cooper S. My installer has been in business many years and does not recommend installing the 3M material on the bumpers. The reason is because the bumper is made of ABS plastic. In his words, you are putting plastic on top of plastic. On my cars he has installed 3M material on the hood (18") fender tips, mirrors, A pillars, headlights, and fogs. The cost is $269.00 on one car and $289.00 on anothere. Lexus and Cadilliac. The Corvette was $269.00. For what it's worth, the full window tint on the Lexus was $180.00, on the Corvette was $199.00, and the Cadilliac was $180.00. No problems what so ever on any of the cars in over 2 to 4 years. You may want to question your installer the benifits of installing 3M material on an ABS (plastic) bumper. Now would be the time to ask.
