Austin Cedar Park Clear Bra

Darin’s work is meticulous and thorough plus his shop is very clean and neat. His bra is state of the art 5 year warranted material that self heals scratches and swirls!!! His tint advice was expert and he proved to me I didn’t really want limo black since I wouldn’t be able to see out at night! I’m very happy with my clear bra and window tint on my sexy blue Z car. Darin gets the high end clients too, my Porsche and Vette friends are so impressed with my job, they’re making appointments as I write this review! PLUS, Darin has the best prices in town!!! It’s WAY worth the drive to Cedar Park, Darin will keep your car in his shop overnight if you have to leave it a day! Don’t pay for less expert mobile services at higher prices!

Long story short, Darin’s attention to detail is unmatched.
I recently just purchased a 2015 Ford Focus ST and brought the car to ACP Clear Bra with less than 1000 miles on the car. I had reached out to Darin after a strong recommendation from a close friend of mine who had his 2014 Scion FRS protected with a clear bra, Opti-​coat, and tint.
Since only one car can be worked on at a time, my appointment was roughly a month after I bought the car. Unfortunately in that time span of waiting, I had picked up two small chips in the paint because of rocks on the road. Needless to say, I was incredibly anxious to get the car protected.
Without a doubt, all of my expectations were blown away. Darin recommended Opti-​Coat Plus for my vehicle was spot on. The extra gloss adds a completely unmatched level of shine to my black vehicle. Additionally, there was paint protection put on the headlights, wheels, and glass. Without a doubt, a fantastic sound investment to protect your vehicle.
On top of that, the entire front of my car was protected with the Suntek paint protection film. The care and level of detail with the film was phenomenal. There is no evidence of a clear bra on the car unless you are looking deliberately for the seams… and even then you can’t tell!
I can’t recommend the services enough. Although there is a level of sticker shock when protecting your vehicle, rest assured, every service that is offered is FANTASTIC. Any and all future vehicles I purchase will be spending time at ACP Clear Bra for protection. Thanks Darin!

Great experience with Cedar Park Clear Bra. Darin was very helpful and accommodating with scheduling. I was attempting to make the appointment within a couple days of picking up my new vehicle, and when it arrived two weeks early he was still able to do so. He applied Xpel ultimate film to the full front and Opti Coat pro to entire vehicle. Results were outstanding – would highly recommend.

I highly recommend ACP Clear Bra, I had a great experience. I did a lot of research on installers and film before I made a decision. I chose them because of the film (Xpel Ultimate), price (very competitive) and overall initial experience. Darin called me back when he said he would, sent a quote when he said he would and had great communication overall.
I just picked up my black Porsche 911 Turbo and it looks excellent. The quality of work was outstanding and it was done when he said it would be. I’m very particular about my car so I was very critical of the job. I’ll definitely recommend to my friends.
I did my front bumper, full hood, full front fenders, headlights, a-​pillars and front of roof.

Warning, incoming wall of text.
I had XPEL Ultimate film installed on my new 2013 Mazdaspeed3 (Crystal White Pearl). Full front, full hood, half fenders, headlights/​foglights, mirrors, and top of rear bumper. Couldn’t be happier with the film or the install. That is saying something with a perfectionist and detail enthusiast like myself. It took a lot for me to drop my brand new car off (800 miles on the ODO) and get it done but I am very glad I did. Darin is a super cool guy and knows his stuff. He’s a car guy too. The location is a bit up north for most folks but worth it. This is also one of the only XPEL locations in Austin that can cut film pieces on site. If you’ve done your research, and if you’re looking at XPEL you surely have, this has several advantages.
The film itself is just awesome and literally unnoticeable, even on white. Now keep in mind, with any film or any installer, there is no such thing as a perfect install. Look around and you will find this to be the case. There WILL be very small imperfections in the film here and there (I’ve noticed one on my entire install which can only be seen under a very specific angle of direct sunlight) or something that gets trapped underneath that you didn’t see. It’s part of the equation. But once it’s done, you’re paint is impervious to almost everything. If you’re like me, super (probably sick in the head) perfectionist, I highly recommend doing (or getting one, Darin does this also) a full detail right before install.
Cool story time. Two days after the install, I took a 600 mile road trip and got annihilated with bugs. I mean bad. I was so afraid that given the number of bugs and newness of the install that it was going to hurt the film since I didn’t have an opportunity to wash my car until several days later. All of them literally wiped off with soap and water. I couldn’t believe it. If you’re thinking of getting it, stop, just get it. And if you’re going to get it, have this place do it. You will not regret it.
I might not drive a new 458, but my little Mazda IS my 458 and I take care of it as if it were one. And if you’ve ever seen the front end of a MS3, you can only imagine how difficult those installs have to be. Top notch.
Cheers.

If you haven’t seen or heard of XPEL paint protection film, you owe it to yourself to watch some of their demo videos to see it’s self-​healing properties. Austin Cedar Park Clear Bra installs XPEL because as far as clear bra materials go, it’s the best.
That approach is reflected in the rest of Darin’s (the owner) approach to doing business. He’s a perfectionist in the best way possible when it comes to the aesthetics of your car and will take time to correct things that are not to his satisfaction, even if they look «good enough» to you.
Recently, I had some panels on my car covered with XPEL. Unfortunately, on driving home, I was immediately caught in the pouring rain. As a result, even though a heat gun was used to speed the bonding process, there were minor corners and edges where the film pulled away from the paint. Darin not only cheerfully corrected all these, he repeated told me that if afterwards, I decided that it was not to my satisfaction, he would replace entire panels to make it right.
