I contacted my local clearbra installer about coverage for a 2006 or 2007 Dodge Viper SRT-10 that I will probably order early next year. I have read various posts on the this forum about high temperatures on both the lower sill area (the area enclosing the side exhaust pipe) and heat venting up from the louvers on the hood. I plan on covering these areas as well as the inner portion of the door entry side sill (to protect from scuff marks from shoe heels, etc.) My installer indicated that the Clearbra material he uses (pretty sure it is not Xpel but another "major" brand like Vincashield) is heat resistant to 212 degrees Farenheit. Has anyone (or could anyone) taken a temperature reading from these areas to see what actual temperatures the car generates after fairly heavy, extended use? I would also love comments from folks who actually applied clearbra material to these areas to see if they have had problems. At my installers shop we applied a heat gun and the only visible effect was some bubbling in the material. He did not believe that, even if the heat exceeded safe levels that the material would damage the Viper's paint.
Thanks very much for any information you can provide.
