It may not be what you're looking for, but I had mine installed by my dealer, BMW of Peabody. Great job and warrantied. I'm sure Herb Chambers in the city would be just as good.

Thanks- I found a place called Protection Plus out in Shrewsbury. A few people spoke highly of them, and I called to discuss the options. They seemed to know what they were talking about, and they provide service for several dealerships in the area. They are open on Saturdays, so I made an appointment- hopefully it will work out OK. I have about 2000 miles on my new 530xi and found a tiny chip already- it's not very noticeable, but I don't want more of them....

The clear bra's a great idea - especially if you're traveling the Mass Pike frequently. Good luck.

I got a 3M clear bra when I leased my car. I'm on my 2nd one now and even this on e is yellowing. Maybe it's the white car, but it is irritating - but not as much as these freakin' New England winters and all of the stone chips.

Just a follow-up. Had my clear bra (3M) installed this morning at Protection Plus in Shrewsbury. Great place and wonderful service. The installation was perfect. If you live in the Massachusetts area, they are definitely a place to check out. Dave is the installer and will answer any questions ahead of time (508-845-5038).
