I am considering installing on my car as well . . . when it finally gets here. I am going to a shop called "Winners Window Tint" in
Rockville today to get some pricing information for the clear bra and window tinting. Perhaps we can get a group rate?!?

I had a dealer installed clear bra (can't remember the name) that was very expensive but work it. You can hardly tell it's there. You can see pictures of the car with it on at http://caslis.com/photos/bmwe90/zain...bra/index.html .

I did one a few weeks ago for a member on this Forum. He was very pleased. I have a friend in Ellicot City, M.D. who would do a group discount. Go to www.Proformauto.com or call 1-866-PRO-3682. Ask for Rob and tell him Chris from NY sent you.

Thanks Christopher! The website is very informative. I will complete the info form and drop your name in the form.

I appreciate the information. If I decide to go with your friend and they do a good job, I'm sure they will, I will definitely spread the word so that any discount extended will more than pay for itself.

VOB in Rockville recommended Clearway in Bethesda, I may do mine there on Wednesday. They recommended Winner's for tinting, but not for the clear bra, no idea why. I have had work done on my former car at Autobahnd Roadblock in Sterling, VA, excellent work there, just a major logistical pain to get there, leave car, get back, etc...

Any MD local know good/bad about Clearway?

I went ahead and used Clearway in Bethesda, they did a very good job, bit expensive, but I am sure it will be worth it over the years.

I don't even have a bimmer but just had to register so I can reply to this post. DO NOT go to Winners in Rockville, MD. They used to do a good job in the past but craftmanship has been going downhill lately. Probably because owner is rarely there and he's got unskilled employees doing the work. Took my brand new benz for clear bra and my paint got nicked. I wanted the area above the rear wheels done so they couldn't use precut film and had to custom cut it (that's where paint got nicked). You can see the crappy jagged cutting done above the wheel and its starting to come undone along the edges with black dirt stuck underneath (my car is white). Also got my front windshield tinted. Cut is all crooked along the top edge.

Just a warning! Go only if you want a shoddy job or want to get it redone again elsewhere.
