  1. Re: Repaint + Clear Bra Vs. Repaint Only Vs. Mediocre Current Paint

    Decided to pony up for the clear bra and repaint. It's very low and fiberglass, so I might regret not getting any protection on it. These cars came with the factory option of a clear bra way back...
  2. Re: Repaint + Clear Bra Vs. Repaint Only Vs. Mediocre Current Paint

    That's the tough part... I could see keeping this car 1 year or 10+ years, I'm not sure. I have my sights set on someday upgrading to something like an F430, but the thing is such a blast and an...
  3. Repaint + Clear Bra Vs. Repaint Only Vs. Mediocre Current Paint

    As a follow-up to this thread (https://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/ask-mike-phillips-your-detailing-questions-/123872-clear-bra-marred-brake-fluid-spill-way-fix.html), long story short, a shop...
  4. Re: Clear bra marred by brake fluid spill - way to fix?

    BTW, they left it out in the sun (but started work before 10am so it couldn't have gotten very hot) and supposedly used boiling water. Seems like that wouldn't heat it up as well as a heat gun,...
  5. Re: Clear bra marred by brake fluid spill - way to fix?

    Talked with the shop and they're going to pay for a front-end repaint and then clear bra once the paint cures. So all is good. The paint and clear bra were okay, but not great, so I guess in the...
  6. Re: Clear bra marred by brake fluid spill - way to fix?

    No idea, but now the front end of the car needs to repainted and whole clear bra needs to be redone. Aka several thousand dollars worth of work through no fault of my own. What recourse do I have...
  7. Re: Clear bra marred by brake fluid spill - way to fix?

    Alright, so horrible news. The installer started pulling off the old clear bra and it started pulling up paint - it looks like the front end "clamshell" (all one fiberglass piece with the Lotus) was...
  8. Re: Clear bra marred by brake fluid spill - way to fix?

    How easy is it to polish? At this point I'm kind of leaning towards just having them replace, since they would only credit me the amount at their $350 cost, and getting it done somewhere else would...
  9. Re: Clear bra marred by brake fluid spill - way to fix?

    I think it's fine. I got a chance to look at it in person and the marring seems to be limited to the surface of the clear bra.

    The shop updated me and said their cost to replace is $350. So I...
  10. Clear bra marred by brake fluid spill - way to fix?

    The shop working on my Lotus Elise spilled brake fluid on the clear bra (don't know the brand of clear bra, but he said it doesn't look like the factory one).

    He wiped it off immediately, but it...
