most car bra's are pretty useful, that one looks like an exceptionally poor fit though.
I'd consider one if had a new car and was doing a long distance trip, help save a few stone chips etc.
Allthough leaving them on all the time doesn't ruin your paint as such, but the paint under the bra doesn't fade from the elements, so when you take it off you can find yourself a two-tone bonnet :o
In a previous life I had a 911 (which has a huge amount of frontal paintwork) which the previous owner had fitted with an "invisible bra" film. Stuck on. Could almost not see it. Stopped normal stone chips from country driving. About 1000% less obvious than the one in the photo :o
I pride my Forester on being covered in scrapes and scratches and dings from offroading and the dent on the side from my silly sort of roll over :p
Those are a far far better option than those stupid "bras". I had the honor (??) of crashing an elise once (well maybe more of a minor off) and the only damage was that it had one of those stupid bra's on and it got pulled and where the clips were it damaged the bodywork :(Quote:

WOFTAM! :angel:
