New DD: Project DurRTay-D

For $800 what does the clear bra cover? At that price it should cover
- Whole front bumper
- First 1/3 of the hood
- Backs of mirrors
- Edges of all 4 doors
- Rear bumper where it meets the tailgate.

If it's less than that, it's too expensive.

I thing it covers the entire front end (entire front bumper, part of fenders and hood). I don't think it covers anything other than the front area, not doors or rear. They would do a partial front one too for half the price.

Only thing has me worried is there's been two reports of the motors locking up with under 20,000miles.

Dealership warranties it but still has me thinking about later on.

Happens with every model of every make, that's why warranties exist. You won't find any vehicle on the market with a 0% failure rate. Stay up on the maintenance and you have nothing to worry about. The good thing about these mass produced vehicles is the manufacturer is probably well aware of the problem before you ever experience it so they'll either release a recall for it, or have a TSB available to the dealerships on how to fix it.

Awesome ride. I am actually going to go look at one this weekend.

As I've personally havent seen the 2015 yet.Does it look like it will have enough room for a family of 6 and still be able to carry there stuff?

It's 3 rows. The 3rd row is quite usable, more usable than a 2015 Tahoe's 3rd row in my opinion. Anyone under 6ft I'd go as far as saying they'd be rather comfortable back there. Ours is essentially a 6 passenger because we got the captains seats. 7 if you did bench instead. The captains are nice because you can walk between them to get to the 3rd row, that's why we got them. Hard to fold down seats to get to the back when there's child seat(s) strapped to them.

I drove a 15 Tahoe, 15 Expedition, and 15 Durango. Tahoe again I thought the 3rd row was just about useless. Expedition had the best seating room/setup, but even the 2015 looks like it was designed in 05 or something which was kinda an issue. Durango was cheaper than them, 3rd row was still decent, felt nicer to me (not so big), and came with some pretty nice options in most of them like heated seats/steering wheel and uConnect.

Add sunroof? I wouldn't do anything but factory these days, aftermarket is asking for leaks and problems.

Agreed, see this all the time.


I can get you the exact same thing - hood,fenders,front bumper for 675.00. This is cheaper then repainting..

Dont waste the money on the exterior stuff, pretty much glorified wax, but i do hear good things about the interior protection if it's cloth which doesn't apply. Makes removing stains much easier and with kids that could happen alot :biggrin:

Looks nice! I have sat in these at the last couple auto shows and been impressed with the interior for sure.

[turbotalon1g]

Love it, so glad you got the V8.

Also I got 4 captains seats for the same reason with the 3rd row, I wish I had a bench seat up front though.

I wish I had a bench seat up front though.

Also, just noticed what you did with the title B. Very nice haha.

My car has a clear bra on it and it is awesome. Zero rock chips on the front and it is still nearly invisible. It looks like it has been on the car since new in 2011. I am not sure what brand BMW uses, but probably similar to 3M quality. I know there are cheaper versions out there like this place, but not sure on their quality.

Needs badges removed! But I like the aggressive look, very cool.

I had a clear bra on the GC, and it definitely helped stop some rock chips. I could see after a few years it getting pretty dinged up. I would just replace it at that point, but I wouldn't pay those dealer prices!
