Looking for Clear Bra in Canada
New 2004 owner here, the previous owner took immaculate care of this RX8 and I would like to keep the trend going, however I will be putting some kms going to work on the highway. So I am thinking about getting a clear bra 3M seems to be the choice. Anyone know where I can purchase online in Canada?

Purchasing online is unlikely - the best installs are computer-cut to fit all the complex front curves, right down to the mirrors and the foglight lenses.
Kind of like a tint job, buying the film is the least of your problems! Find the best shop in your area. Mine cost C$500. |
You don't want to install a Clear-bra on your own ...not fun. I had my hood done by www.chipguard.com, they will come to your vehicle to do it. The hood only was $170 , I had the front bumper done as well and I think that was around $400. Well worth it

This link is for a Vancouver shop, but you get the idea... |
All I can say is give them a call, I'm not aware of any changes to the front end of the car that would make the 2007 different then a 2004. Again just give them a call, as I indicated installation of a big price like a hood is not fun, Don't even try the front bumper that one took the pro's several hours.

Their website does not show any application to rx8 (at least not for 2007 model).

clear bra's are my favorite if you know what i mean ;)
but as far as the 3M stuff... its the same as whats on the rear quarter panels on the rx8. My hood and bumper have a bunch of little dings from highway rocks and such... while any type of bra would have stopped that it's not a huge deal for me because the bumper is plastic and the hood is aluminum. anywhere between $150 and $400 would be likely the cost... worth it? well... maybe for some people. mazda should have put something on the rear wheel wells on the inside lip to stop them from getting rock chips and RUSTING... :O |
