CrackerJax - I know, the first is the worst. I got three windshield chips, one which is fixed the others I left alone. The first one really got to me, cause I wasn't following any cars, so I have no idea where it came from. These things happens. We bought these cars to drive them, and minor damages are apart of that. Think of it this way, it could of been worse if someone hit your parked car with their door when you weren't there. Besides, now you can join the windshiled chip club lol.

nightkids - There are links to the 3M site if you do a search for 3M or go back to the beginning of this thread for FYIs. As for body kits and 3M, you wuold need to ask or do a search for that on the threads. I assume that it can be done, but it will cost a whole lot more, since it will be a custom job.

Yup $ is the reason. Do a search on the 3M film and go to thier site, you'll find more than enough info on it.

That's hillarious It's like, if a plane's blackbox is made to survive a crash, why not make the whole plane out of the black box

Yeah, speaking of clear bra.... where is that JOHN character. I don't think that guy is serious about any deal. The last time I spoke to this guy, he was going on and on to sell me the product... I told him to relax, I was already sold, save the sales pitch, i just want it done. Since then, he hasn't contacted me since. I say Hobbes, we take our business elsewhere

Hey guess what, John got too busy I guess, and referred my name off to another guy from 3M Timline. He's taking appointments.

I'm going to try to do mine soon. His name is John Legere, 905-792-8746. You have to go to his shop, around dixie and steeles (Brampton), I work close, so I'll be alright.

CrackerJax,

Did you end up going to see John about the 3m protection in Brampton?

OH Shoooot, i meant to post something here.

By myself, he wants $675 for bumper, fender, 10" of hood, and mirrors. If i could get 9 other folks to join me, he can bring the price down to $575.

He does the bumper with fewer pieces, so it's less of a puzzle. I would like to get this done. If nobody else is interested, I'm in it for myself... i'm gonna pay CASH, if you know what I mean.

I think i'm going to meet with him on Monday. I need to get this thing on asap. I have a feeling i'll be plagued by flying stones Especially since my car is black. I wonder if he'll drop it for two people

Hey MrJynx, surely you believe in jinx I didn't have to worry about stone chips till I started to talk about the DOH

Maybe this clear bra thing could still happen. I don't really feel like paying more than $600 to get the job done, especially if I'm going to pay cash. I would really like to get it done for less, but i don't want to compromise quality and workmanship... hopefully we can chat about this at today's Toronto meet.

I had the xpel kit done on my S2000. It protected the impact spots greatly. I took the kit off 3 1/2 years later when I traded the S in on an 8. I highly recommend these kits.

I am not getting it for my 8 since I am leasing the car. if I purchased it, I would get it in a heartbeat.
