Clear Bra installer NoVA?
As I anxiously await delivery (or a TPW, or anything) on my Z06, I am starting to plan. I clear bra all of my cars (no need to debate the pros and cons of clear bras). I did it myself once, but these days I leave it to the pros. Problem is that my last new car was my 2010 CTSV, and the guy who did that car is no longer in the business. Does anyone in the Northern Virginia/DC metro area have a good current recommendation for a clear bra installer? Xpel, 3M, any of the major films would OK with me......
Thanks.

I'm in Haymarket. After speaking with a few people, I took mine to Proforma in Ellicott City, MD. It was in good company while there with a Ferrari and a Bentley. I went with Xpel Ultimate. Rob at Proforma does great work and I'd use him again in a heartbeat. There is a car rental place a block away so no big deal to drop the car off and pick it up the next day. I also had them do their New Car Paint treatment which included polishing the paint and then applying several Gtechniq products. They also do ceramic window tinting which I also had done.
Highly recommended!

Some personal issues on my end delayed my pickup of the car by a few days...and he was very understanding and very accommodating.
