I am trying to decide if I should get Clearguard for the bumper as I just have for the hood. Clearguard has great customer service I might add... and I just did :)

1 on hood and 1 on fender behind the headlight :(

I started with an invisible bra on the hood & lights, then decided to get the bumpers done as well a few weeks later.

I would highly recommend the protection.

my hood has more than my bumper

my bumper has all kine of little nicks and crap. arrgh.. not too bad only you if you go up close and smash your face against the bumper to see it..

what could help this? clear bra?

what was the labor for installation of the bumper?

i HAD .15 MIL DONE ON MY REAR BUMPER and it saved the paint in a scrape with another car- it was fine once we pulled up the section of 3M. .9 mil is the standard they usually do on the front.

Neither... I have a kit on both :) I had more problems w/ my bumper b4 I had the 3 kits put on though...

Me too. And I managed to chip the paint on the UNDERSIDE of my spoiler. How, I have no idea, but it's there.

More on the hood. Gonna get the touchup paint on it soon.

In a year or so, I'm sure my hood and bumper will be thrashed.. just in time for Mazdaspeed kit and carbon fiber hood.

I believe $180.00 installed

Labor depends on the installer... I paid $85 labor for all 3 kits.

Went with a clear-bra within the first week of ownership. Roughly 2 months and 3,000 miles later, no chips or nicks anywhere. Clear-bra would seem to have been a good investment. $445 for hood, fenders, bumper and mirrors. Probably could have gotten it done for $300 if I'd shopped more but then again "you get what you pay for."
