Not that I know of yet. As for a dealer/installer I would think a tint shop would have an idea on a hook up for a clear bra.

Well, I have a 2006 MT, white pearl with nav on order and from what I read about the chips, figure front end protection is a first order. Debated whether to use the standard black mask (much less dough) or go for the clear coat.

Sorry but I can't help you either. Just hoping you could point me in the right direction if you find some one good. I should have my kit on by March and wanted to protect the front as well. As much as I love AZ this place is hell for keeping a car clean especially when it comes to rocks and road debris.

Than ks I will check into it. I have lots of time since the car is scheduled for March delivery - would not be surprised if that turns into April. The other thing I read about is Huper Optiks window tint - ceramic film is supposed to be best on cutting down heat and you all know we can use that in AZ.

When you need your tint done let me know. I know a really nice guy who will come to your home and use any shade of tint you want for $120.00. He also guarentees his work for a year. He ended up having to redo one of mine because it was pretty windy the day I got mine installed. He didn't even complain or put it off.
