I see someone has pulled up another 5 year old thread.. :biggrin If I may give a quick history update. This was a new product That was introduced at the 2006 SEMA show. There was no intentions to make these for the out of production Ford GT's. I became the point man and we got together enough interested parties and put together a group buy.
This product was never meant to be a DIY install product. This rigid film was new to the industry and posed some installation problems for those who were not used to working with rigid films versus flexible films.
Proline sold to us direct which may have been a bad thing for some who incurred installation difficulties.
I believe this product is still available but you need to get it from and have it installed buy an authorized trained installer. I was told the authorized installers started to use infra red dryers. If you do not use the IR dryer it takes about a month to get the film to it's max clarity.
It is nice to hear there is another product ( Clear Plex) available. Maybe Pro or Colton74 can share some more info or a link to that product.
Helenor still has the first and original windshield skin made for the GT. It has 19 000 miles on it. It has taken some major hits. I know of three impacts that would have resulted in cracked glass. I saw one large stone that was kicked up and hit the windshield on the highway, It left a big gouge in the plastic.
I would note that I do not use wipers on the film. I use Rejex on the film. I put the film on my other GT but it has very few mile on it. I would not drive my GT without this film and it was a decision I am happy that I made.
