Opticoat & clear bra for leased car?
I am in a dilemma and need some feedback on this.
I leased a 2013 328i and was thinking about getting opticoat and/or clearbra for front and hood. I understand it's an expensive deal but not sure if I should do it or not. I don't plan on keeping this car for more than 2.5yrs. Did any of guys have it? Also where did you get it done?

If you're leasing the car why bother? The lease includes the expectation of wear on the bumpers, so who cares - you're effectively flushing the money down the toilet.
If you were purchasing the car I'd say go for it since you'd appreciate it 5 years down the road. If you're still sold on it, I'd recommend Detailing Dynamics in Mineola, they do great work but again it's pricey.

IMHO, Leased= no. Bought = yes since you're protecting your investment long term. It is very expensive. Clear Bra on bumper is 540.00 alone and Opti-coat is 550 on up. These are quotes I rec'd from detailing dynamics.
