New paint, how to protect?

[Chiron]

My car's getting some new paint on the bumper after an accident, and I want to keep it nice and chip-free. I'd really like a 3M clear bra, but I have the Roush front end, so that's out of the question, as I doubt they'd make a custom front bra. Any suggestions for a semi-permanent alternative?

Hot damn, thanks! Any personal experience with either product, or even that site in general? I'll definitely be trying 'em out.

Make sure you check with the painter before you put anything over the fresh paint. It takes a certain amount of time for all of the chemicals to "breathe" out and if you smother it you might have problems down the road.

Thanks, I actually asked the shop about that the other day. They said wait 30 days before waxing or covering, for the very reason you described.

Post up once you do the install, I was thinking of something like that as for my new CA Special bumper but I'm not sure if I could get it looking professionall clean installed even taking my time. I got a few quotes local and they wanted $500 to $750 to do front bumper and 4 inches up my cowled hood.
