Default Clear Bra Install- Update

If some of you remember I was having Llumar clear bra installed on my Infiniti FX before having the vette done. The first attempt by a seasoned installer was a disaster. The Llumar was actually a grayish color on the black car. After several attempts to get NEW plastic the shop told me they couldn't help me because they could not get "new product" due to Llumar mfg. problems. I found a shop to install Ventureshield-www.ventureshield.com/ and it turned out perfectly. Beautiful in fact.
Thanks to forum member Mike at Premier Paint Protection for his advice and guidance. www.premierpaintprotection.com. If anyone needs expert advice about this clear bra stuff he's the man to talk to.
A word to the wise is sufficient- beware of Llumar.
