Since the F10 front bumper ends at the crease with the hood, is the F10 clear bra able to be installed into/up to that crease so there are no visible lines?

If Phil can't do it . No one can
They do outstanding work and if I'd live closer I'd use him all the time.
His service has been outstanding and very reliable.

Phil - when you do opticoat followed by a film install, do you install the film over the opticoat, or do you only use film on non opticoat panels, and opticoat non film panels?

sure to be honest because of time we do not opti coat the areas that we are clear filming we would have to wait for 12 hours before we can apply the film, most customers do not want to give up their cars for that length of time, as well the clear film is already protecting the car, some ask us to opti coat the clear film we will do that for them.

Hmmm. So the Opticoat does not cause issues with the adherence of the film?

My car is being opticoated tomorrow (sat) but clearbra is on Monday. Should I ask them to opticoat the whole thing?

I'm in Atlanta. Jean-Claude is doing the detail, and Atlanta Protective Films is doing the PPF. Both are top notch guys.

Unfortunately we don't have a first class one stop shop like your place down here
