Default Nose Mask (Bra)

Does anyone know if they make a regular front end bra yet for the new 2014 models?
I know about the clear bra's, but I'm not to keen on having one of those put on.

The regular front end bras will be worse for your car than one of the clear bras. The paint will be damaged.

From what I've heard dust, rocks, sand, and whatever will get under that nose bra and then bounce around between the paint and the bra. End result: scratches galore.

and plus it makes your car looks like wearing a real bra! :P

did anyone get clearbra installed on the front portion of the hood, or the whole wood? If you got the front portion only, whats the benefit since rocks can hit at higher places?

I can't recall seeing a bra like that in the last 10 years, do they still exist?

I haven't seen a car with leather nose bra in ages.

Lots of cars had them in the 80's. Now, not so much.

Funny this comes up. I just saw an old Civic at the gas station with a bra on the front, and it caught my eye as I had not seen one in quite some time. Aside from his car, he was making a large spectacle of himself. He had Oregon plates, and was up here (Washington) as a visitor. He was very, VERY loudly complaining and yelling about the fact that gas was a nickel more expensive here in Washington, and yet he had to get out of his car and pump his own gas. Outrageous! (For those of you who don't know, it's illegal to pump your own gas in Oregon, so they have attendants to do that for you.)

Back on topic...I doubt if you'll find one available, but if you do, I'd avoid it. They really do a lot of damage to your paint.
