Help: Picking up SRT tomorrow, need Clearbra in ATL

[Scott_in_FL]

Jumping on a plane tonight to go visit Mike Robbins. We'll be driving the new coupe home over the next few days, taking it easy. Can anyone recommend a good Clearbra installer in the Atlanta area that has done work on their SRT?

Pics when we return. Thanks in advance.

Scott.

Thanks Vinny. I gave Mike a call and we're hooking up tomorrow at 1:00 p.m. I take it you were happy with the install. Any areas I should avoid? Does it make sense to go so far up the hood as he suggested, and all the way out to the wheel wells? Did you do mirrors too? Anything else I should know about and ask about before he gets started?

Thanks in advance.

I might not rush the job in Atlanta just for the drive home. Buy a bra for the drive and have someone in FL take there time doing it. I know of someone in Boca, and if you can't get partsrack to over night a bra to your dealer or hotel, come by and grab mine.
I'm 5 minute from I95.

it has only been a week, but, yes, i am happy with his work. he explained what he was doing, and how he was going to do it, and di what he said he was going to do. i went up the hood 24", and i think i would recommend it. i did not do the mirrors. had him put some film on the door handles though. don't know what color your car is, but mine is black and i'm told thats the most difficult, and i think he did a good job.

Well, we picked up the car this morning (pics in a separate thread as soon as I wake the GF for the download cable). Last minute switch from Blue/Silver to Black/Silver.

Anyway, we took it to Mike and he called me about 20 minutes later to say he wasn't comfortable applying the 3M film over the stripes. He says because they have a raised edge, that the film will dry and show a white line beside the stripe because it will not sit all the way down agains the edge. So, as Andrew suggested, we're going to wait until we're back home so that someone can spend whatever time it takes to make it look right. Mike was great and a really upstanding guy to refuse the work because he thought there might be a chance that I would be unhappy down the road (literally and figuratively).

Andrew, I wish I had posted earlier because I defintely would have taken you up on borrowing your bra. Now we're naked without any real easy way to protect the front until we get back. Oh well, we'll take it easy and stay way back from all other vehicles.

This car is awesome!!!! Read the separate post about the delivery for some really cool first things heard from passersby.
