when i first bought the car it had small chips scattered out on the front bumper. now it's getting worse what are you guys doing about them mines black so you know it shows up. thought about buying a bra just not sure how it'd look on the car

 

If you have the money, get the front bumper repainted and buy a clear bra to prevent it from happening again.

^ thats exactly what I'm doing sometime this spring. A good detailer would be able to get rid of the rock-chips as well, instead of repainting it. But a repaint might be cheaper.

And since we're on the topic, where can I get a complete clear-bra for the SC?? I've been quoted at around $800 to get it done professionally. But we did a friends car this past summer and it turned out really well. So I just need the bra so I can save some money and do it myself..

 

i gotta do something before it gets worse

 

I googled and found this

I heard the 3M scotchguards are really good but also more expensive

 

 

You mention the lip, not the front bumper. Which is it?

If it's the stock lip, they aren't painted so I'm assuming it's an aftermarket one like Wise.

Same thing has happened to my Wise lip. It was nice and glossy black when I bought my car last year. Then over time I started seeing a few blue spots. Now I have thousands of them. The guy painted this lip with a spray can or something. Now I have to fix his awesome paint skills. Just another Saturday added to the books.

 

i meant the front bumper it's all on the sides, center , bottom and right on the edge where the hood line is im just glad i dont have any on the hood or the doors and mirrors

 

ive never heard of a clear bra--sounds like it will do the trick though

 

I used to see them all the time on the high end vehicles(Ferraris, Lambos,Aston Martins) when they come in for inspection.

 

i offroaded all the time in the truck hit rocks, scraped , tiped over to the side and they were no where near like these i just washed, waxed and detailed the car with turtle wax black treatment it filled it most of the specs now i've got a spot on the drivers side lower part of the bumper next to the fog light where it looks like it's cracked bad
