Thanks again. The Forum & members are Great!
Had my Elise done using the PFT pattern, same 3M film. Nose, part of hood, rockers, headlights, mirrors. Headlight film is 6X thicker than the rest.

You can do this yourself, but it's not really a one time/do it yourself job. If you're not practiced, you're not going to get the results you want and you may even waste or damage some of the pieces.

The nose of the Crossfire has some contours that benefit from someone who knows what they're doing.

These clear bras are great and when installed by a pro, nearly invisible.

Be aware that while they're not easily seen on any car (mine is black) they do show up more on the darker colors than the lighter ones. The 3M film is not the clearest product on the market, does have a slight orange peel, and it is more apparent on a dark color.

I agree, I'm going this route from now on. Worth the money.
