Picked up my Passion on April 28, 2008

Finally received my card, ordered April 7, 2008.

Question tho, is it worth it to have the clearcoat "bra" put on the front?

[pinger]

We opted not to. We got the car a teflon paint protection at one of those super car wash places. It is supposed to keep the bugs from sticking and the treatment really made the paint color pop.

We had it done yesterday, so it is too soon to see if the teflon coating does what they say it will do.

Smitly,
BTW, Congrats on getting your car. We picked ours up on 4/29.

Yes, congrats also! Don't forget the Official Delivery thread, the Members Map, photo gallery and, oh yeah, join the SCoA club and win (maybe*) a free ScanGauge!

* disclaimer - odds of winning slightly better than gas going back to $3.00 a gallon.

Congratulations on your new smart!!!

Just say no to the plastic wrap!!! Front panels are inexpensive and the clear bra runs near $700. You can buy 4 new front panels for that.

EXACTLY - seems like a terrific waste of money - and another thread talks about a possible 'bubble interaction' with the paint and the clear bra...
