I need to get around to doing this too. Getting really tired of seeing this little gap above the front splitter. Seems like I'm noticing it more and more every time I take pictures.
I swapped with R springs and rear sway bar but still with stock 35 series tires for now. So it suppose to lower the car a little bit. I know that because I scraped the rear when I leave the gas station ramp after I got the R springs. It used to be fine with non-R springs and even without rear seats removal .:frusty:
I cut it myself with Silhouette vinyl cutter. I bought it several years ago to do a project on my previous car and it works like charm. All I need to do is buy a warp of vinyl for like 10$ then I can use it to cut dozens or even hundred of decal. The downside is the cutting area is only 12" by 12" meaning I have to cut three then put them together with transfer tape after. It's just letter without black background. I also did this and put it on the rear window. Let me know what you want and I don't mind to cut what you want for you and send it to you.
I'm worried now. I will fix this myself as soon as possible. Can't really trust the dealer these days.:headbonk:
Not marginal lower but what I read from other is about 1/4-1/8 inch lower. I didn't measure it myself. My feeling it's lower but I could be wrong
How do you like the clear bra? How visible is it?
Clear bra is, well, clear
I agree I have the entire front done on my car and it is barely visible. It definitely saves the paint on the front end in a major way. I would definitely do it again. The most important factor is who you pick to install itClear bra is, well, clear
It should be essentially invisible when done correctly. I had my entire R wrapped in XPEL Ultimate and can't notice it at all, even the edges can't be seen unless you are literally a couple inches away from it.
Absolutely agree, the installer makes a world of difference. I had some issues with the install on mine in regards the film lifting after I picked the car up and drove over 1000 miles and an 8 hour ferry ride home. The installer and I spoke about the issues and in the end, he flew to my province to spend a day in my garage to entirely redo the sections that had issues. Couldn't ask for any better than that really.
And don't forget the rear impact area in front of the rear wheels!Absolutely agree, the installer makes a world of difference.

If anyone in Eastern Canada is looking for someone to install film, Nick Hansen the owner of Hansen Signs in Moncton is the guy who did my film. Great guy and does good work too; wrapped his own GT4 as well
I agree with everyone here. The installer is the most important part of the process. I have used my guy for quite some time and am willing to pay more for his quality. My '16 I used Suntek and decided to use Suntek again on this one. However, I have Xpel on my M3. I would just use whatever your installer recommends and he is most comfortable with.
