I've been looking at the Invinca-Shield and Xpel websites for clear bras to protect the hood. I have a few questions that I'm hoping someone who has either one can answer:

1. Do they work as well and look as good as advertised?
2. Do they start to look like sh** after getting hit with stones, being exposed to the elements after a while, etc.
3. Are they easy to install yourself? This would be my first attempt at anything like this.
4. If you end up not liking them, how easy are they to remove? I know Invinca-Shield's website says it can be removed with ease but I don't know how true that is.

I'm leaning toward the Invinca-Shield due to the price and 20% discount they have going on, but I'm interested in hearing others' opinions first. Thanks--

 

To answer some of your questions,

1. Yes, they worked as advertised. It really protects my car from stone chips.

2. 3M claim that the film will not turn yellow over time and I'm sure they are credible saying that. But I only have mine for about a year and so far they are as good as new as I often wax my car.

3. Depending on the contour of your car's body, the front bumper is not as easy to instal as the hood. Basically you need to have patience to do it right.
