ok so I know it dosen't look great - so hold off on the ugly comments - I bought it so that when I take it on the upcoming 500 mile trip that it protects the front end. Thought you all might want to see some pics of it on....

 

Here's another one...

 

and with just the hood panel on...

 

Not a bad investment if you ask me, especially for a road trip. I have clear protective film on my car and a part of me wouldn't mind getting one of those for a long road trip either.

 

Yeah I figured it was worth the $120 - if not just for having to scrape off the 1000's of bug guts!

 

AAAACK...those things usually do more harm than good - long stretches at highway speed = wind pulling and tugging those things against your paint.

 

I don't think it looks that bad at all. Mind me asking how much it cost?

 

I was thinking about one, but the last one did more harm than good.

paint got dull along the edge...

 

Just dont always leave it on because it gets to a point where it damages your paint. Try to at keast remove it twice every month and clean both the inside of the bra and your car.

 

Just a note...I only intend to put this on for the trip - after that it's back in the trunk until the next long trip (next year) I have no intentions on leaving this thing on all the time. As for paint scratches - I'll play the odds on a long trip - wind vs. rocks,mud,bugs etc...

 

Hey md727, Im glad I found this thread through the search engine. Good stuff. Anyway, Im planning to buy a bra for an upcoming trip also. Just wondering how long it took for delivery as I cant find a local seller.

 

looks like a ski mask

 

Wow, I definitely would like to get one of these for long trips - where did you get it for $120?

find one for the back and people will think your car is an is500!

 

It looks fine, and offers much better protection when you need it than the film. Last vacation, I had 1/2" rock hit the film, leaving the film and paint messed up. That Colgan bra would have prevented that from happening.
