Porsche 911 Turbo Xpel ULTIMATE

With the spring season getting well under way and booked solid for the next week, along with most of May, I’d suggest if you’re looking at getting a clear bra paint protection film done before month’s end get in contact soon. Which leads to a great opportunity to share in which I got to meet up with Ed, to look over his gorgeous near new 2016 Porsche 911 Turbo for an Xpel ULTIMATE clear bra paint protection film installation downtown Vancouver Canada. We had the time to go over the car in detail, showing Ed all of the options he has available and what makes sense coverage wise, where the wraps will be etc… Based on the value and low design of the 2016 Porsche Turbo there is no question a full coverage Xpel ULTIMATE clear bra would the best choice looks and value wise and will leave the Porsche 911 Turbo in pristine condition come time for resale. Furthermore, there will be no seams, nor join marks on the 2016 Porsche 911 Turbo using the Xpel patterns and Xpel ULTIMATE self healing clear bra paint protection film.

Allan reached out and we had a great conversation about protecting his new to him 2008 Lamborghini Gallardo, racing, cars and other fascinating topics. Upon further conversation I understood he will be tracking the Lamborghini Gallardo on occasion and will need to have it protected. The old clear bra was removed before he purchased the Lamborghini which has led to the great opportunity for him to have a 7 year old vehicle, that is still in pristine shape, no rock chips or sandblasting and ready to have a new Xpel ULTIMATE clear bra installed. With the 10 year warranty and resistance to yellowing or fading the next owner is going to benefit down the road as the Lamborghini Gallardo will still be rock ship free without any sandblasting on the paint.

BMW M235i Arrived BMW Moncton

Vancouver ClearBra’s new BMW M235i Cabriolet has arrived in Moncton at BMW Moncton from Germany this week. My dealings were though, my longstanding relationship with Scott the sales manager, and more recently Roland in sales and Monique who’s BMW Moncton’s financial services manager and once I arrive I will have the pleasure to deal with the BMW Genius Lucille who used to be in the business office many years ago.. Please have a look at BMW Moncton yourself to see the great inventory and committed staff serving the New Brunswick region of Canada.

The addition of the new BMW 235i Cabriolet will be exhilarating, since BMW has put a great deal of effort into recreating the fun driving of a classic BMW E46 M3 Cabriolet with its shorter wheelbase and higher horse powered softtop convertible. Furthermore, the BMW 235i cabriolet will be used to help promote Xpel ULTIMATE and 3M Pro clear bra paint protection film installations to Vancouver ClearBra clients throughout Canada from Vancouver to Halifax and most areas in between. It’s rare for a client to desire a first hand consultation after viewing the vast amount of images posted of my work with Vancouver ClearBra dating back to 2004, albeit there are those who would like to view Xpel ULTIMATE or 3M Pro in person for which, the Vancouver ClearBra BMW M235i cabriolet will have a full coverage Xpel Ultimate and 3M Pro clear bra paint protection film installed for viewing. The black color will show off the great self healing properties, rock chip protection and near orange peel free finish.

The BMW M235i Arrived BMW Moncton clear bra show car will have a number of aftermarket parts to help it stand out from the crowd. This will include installation videos on YouTube with blog posts about the Vancouver ClearBra BMW M235i Cabriolet aftermarket parts installations on the products I have chosen to install in detail.

There was no question, I will use a quality self healing and orange peel free clear bra like XPEL ULTIMATE and 3M Pro paint protection film for the Vancouver ClearBra BMW M235i Cabriolet. The clear bra paint protection film installation will be performed in Moncton New Brunswick, at BMW Moncton while the car is brand new with no road mileage to speak of. This will allow me my best chance of a contamination free installation as once the vehicle is on the road it will quickly gather dust, dirt and sand particles in all the little edges, which at times comes out during the installation and gets trapped under the Xpel ULTIMATE or 3M Pro clear bra.

The BMW M235i Arrived BMW Moncton will not be yellowing, fading and is highly resistant to scratching building up, to a point where the film would look unattractive, since the XPEL ULTIMATE and 3M Pro clear bra has self healing properties. Xpel offers a 10 year warranty on their paint protection film installed through myself at Vancouver ClearBra since I’m Xpel certified vs a 7 year warranty with the 3M Pro.

I will get the Xpel ULTIMATE Clear Bra self healing paint protection film on right away before damages from rocks or sandblasting started. In addition, it will match the clear coat perfectly, with it’s orange peel free finish while allowing a near seamless look to the new BMW M235i Xpel ULTIMATE Clear Bra, It’s very important to use a quality film like, XPEL ULTIMATE or 3M Pro in order to prevent yellowing of the film, prevent swirl marks and holograms on dark colored vehicles. I will be using Xpel computer cut kits to avoid cutting on the painted surfaces of the new Vancouver ClearBra 2016 BMW M235i Clear Bra show car.

Full Hood Fenders and Mirrors	Front Bumper

BMW M3 Xpel ULTIMATE Full Clear Bra

Ivan got in touch with me as his new BMW M3 was at Autowest BMW in Richmond having a fault code diagnosed. The BMW M3 had only 100km’s, and was still the best time to have a clear bra paint protection film installed since the cracks would not be full of sand and dirt that could wash out while installing. Me and Ivan had a great deal of conversation about the options available, films, coverages etc… and ended up deciding the best option is to do a full vehicle coverage with Xpel ULTIMATE clear bra paint protection film which will protect from rock chips and sandblasting during highway commutes, door dings or parking lots mishaps all while keeping the factory paint like new till resale down the road.
