I'll let you know how the color matches and the ease of application. There are a couple of chips on the lower front spoiler area that need touched up. I haven't had the opportunity to use it yet, but I will soon. They advertised that it was factory urethane paint, not lacquer.
I've been looking into Colgan Bras and even had my neighbor bring back samples of the 3M clear bra at the SEMA show in Vegas. At 120 miles a day, the mileage racks up quick and so does road rash.

Hi Jr, no I ended up
color sanding all the bad spots in the clear coat and then buffing it out with the rotary buffer on high to finally bring back the gloss like it should be.. Once i compounded it the color match seemed a lot closer and since I decided to keep the truck anyway i just said screw it, its good enough for a work truck..
The clear bra and pieces are available through bmw, Patrick can get them for you like so...
