Default Cleartastic. or 3M ???

Hi

Right now l am on the fence about which front end protection do i really need.

For driving around town i need nothing but when i take trips on the Interstate there are always pebbles flying about.

On my last C5 l used the Speed Lingerie which was awesome but a pain to put on and take off during the colder months, the protection was outstanding.

Now on my new (used) C6 07 l need something, but the question is what makes sense!

Cleartastic sounds good but being that l am not handy at all it might be over my ability lol

3M sounds perfect because they put it on but l believe it is pricey.

The stretch blk bra probably makes the most sense but not crazy about the blk. Does anybody sell it in colors.

My vert is Victory Red / blk top and int.

Any thoughts.


Thanks

Alan

1. find some installer and ask to look at some of their completed work
2. ask what the warranty is
3. use whatever they prefer, they'll do a better job with it.
