I guess the question is. What is best for protecting the frontend from rock chips and bugs without making the car look fugley. :)
 


they make clear bras, its like a lamination that goes along the front of the car. its easy on easy off. i wouldnt use a bra personally because they tend to wear into the paint.
 
Thanks, I feel the same way about bras, I guess I'ii just have to deal with rock chips and bug guts as they appear.
 
this was bought at the dealership.. has grand prix across the front... i actually got alot of comments on how it was the only bra that looked decent on a car.

Unless you get something to cover your whole front end, your whole hood, and your mirrors, you're going to get chips sooner or later. May as well avoid the ugly bra. Unless your front end is f*cked.
 




im gonna get the clear laminated one when i get f1 hood and front bumper repainted :)

I think those generic black ones look like hell, no matter what the car.
 
Thanks for the input, I guess I don't have to worry about it now since a Fedex truck came over the center line while I was passing and messed up my mirror. I didn't care for the black bra look anyway lol. :(
 
i just put a bra on mine 2day. i think it looks good, well alot better than it did. i got it cause my front end needs a paint job and cant afford a paint job rite now. but sure enough when i do have money for a paint job the bra is coming off.
 


I work at a dealership and the item we use the most is 3M Clear Bra.....you cant even notice it until your up close with the car.......I am not sure on the price but it looks so much better!!
 
^ I agree. Get a clear coating. As I and others have stated before a bra will make the paint fade really well on the front end and traps moisture. I might check into the clear coating.
 
Destroys the paint? I beg to differ. My GTP had a bras on since 98 and the paint under it is fine.

Removed it when I bought the car and the damage under the bra is no worse than damage passed the bra. (hell look at my sig. That pic us unedited)
