ClearBra on my ROOF?
Hi All,
So I work in a very old building with an out-dated parking garage. My truck rubs the clearance bar where I pull in. I hit nothing else in the garage, but they refuse to raise the bar another 1/2 inch for me. My thought is to have a ClearBra installed on my roof.
The guy I was talking to thinks this is the perfect solution and will even guarantee it for 5 years. How durable is this material to rub a clearance bar literally at least 5-10 times a week. Will it eventually wear thru such a barrier?
Any help would be appreciated. I need to move quick to prevent damage. I've been rubbing the scuffs every day when I get home but I would like not to have to do that.

I would say go for it just because is essentially giving you a warranty that if it does go through he will replace it. Clear bras are made to protect paint from rock chips and they usually do a good job. I think you should go ahead and pull the trigger on this one.

I've seen quite a few people commenting about the black B-pillar on a Supercrew being susceptible to scratches - I'm wondering if anyone has thought about covering it with the clear bra material? A neighbor of mine has a '15 Platinum and while I was looking at it one of the first comments he made was about how easily that pillar is to scratch. I'm going to get a '16 and doing this has definitely been on my mind.
I also agree with some of the others - a covert trip to the parking garage and raising the bar would be something I'd probably do.
Get yourself a driver and ride in the bed - you could stand there and quickly do the deed then move along. ((Of course...NOW I see this thread... https://www.f150forum.com/f118/b-pillar-options-306455/ ))
