I've got the OEM clear bra shit EVERYWHERE. In a perfect world, I wouldn't need it but it's not a perfect world. Doesn't detract from the looks *too* much. If I had a vinyl bra like that I would literally kill myself and make it look like a murder so my wife would be taken care of financially but I wouldn't have to drive around with that stupid shithead black thing on the front of my car.

Who covers up these days? Everyone knows it's always better raw.

Rock chips and bugs just means you drive your car. Tiny badges of honor.

I've used bras before on my cars, but only on road trips and never for any length of time. Very few chips.

If you want that look and want to protect your paint, plasti-dip the bumper. If you just want to protect your paint, get a clear bra that won't rub and flap against your paint.

Or just use this:

i would not want a full front covering one, id try the ones that go on the hood only.
i like the one on my xrs:

That's hideous. Anybody who puts one of these on their 86 deserves to get their car repo'd.

Can plastidip go right on the bumper then peel off later without any damage? I was considering red over the stock red, or black.

Silverdub 03-30-2013 08:44 PM
its a better idea to get a full bra for long trips to car shows and stuff maybe instead of the ugly blue masking tape people use.. only if you take it off right away when you each your final destination

tracerit 03-30-2013 10:18 PM
lets see some pictures of stone chip damages. keep reading that the paint is thin

Full panel wrap and around the edges. Nobody ever knows its there. I have had my personal gti bumper wrapped for 3 years and about 30k miles with venture shield film. Zero chips or marks, still looks flawless. My frs has a full bumper/hood/fenders/headlights. Looks and works amazing. We used the new Xpel film and its great
Joe... You didn't let me know of this why?!?!?!?!


I'm already suffering from some chips and crap from the drive from MD to FL.

You better come to SOWO my man.
