I only put it on when I'm driving long distance. It's actually bad for your car if it rains and you continue to leave it on there.

oh alright....never knew that.

i understand the point of them, i definitely had a couple of rocks fly up and wished that i had one. But looks wise

Other than the clear, stick-on 3M protection, does anybody have any other bra-like protection that doesn't look quite like the front of the car was eaten by a vinyl monster?
I really want something protecting the front from scratches, but never quite liked the VW bra.

Thanks for posting the pictures, SpeeDemon!
How easy is it to take on/off?

On and off in under 2 minutes.

Great shots. Where can I get one, and how much? I will only use it on long trips, but I am tired of dodging rocks from trucks, and scrubbing crusted on bugs off the front end every weekend.

Yeah, my old ride suffered two cracks (to the tune of $80 to repair) from rocks. There's no way on earth that crap is going to happen to my GTI if I can help it. Any time I'm going to be on trips or highways with 65 speed limit, I throw it on. It's the OEM bra so it will cost some green. $180 is what I think I paid.....been a while cuz I bought it shortly after purchasing the car.

The clear bra goes up to about the front axel.

When I went to get the car chipped, the owner of the shop was taking down my milage and said to me "You should put a clear bra on that before you waste any more money on the car". I said- it's already on there.

That's a great looking ride Dragon! ;D

I'm dying with all the highway driving here in AZ. My dealer didn't know a goddamn thing about the clearbra option. I've pretty much resigned myself to the fact this car is going to have it's road scars, it's meant to be driven. I do my best, but all the cocksucking 18-wheelers and ******** who refuse to get mudflaps on their skyjacked POS's have put chips in places a clear bra wouldn't have covered anyway.

When the paint gets bad enough in a couple years, I think I'll have it redone in a matte silver. Who knows?

The clear bra is great. The guys at Clair VW in ME are great. Real enthusiast. They told me they can install and most likely any aftermarket shop should be able to. If your brave, try it yourself! Mini uses them a lot, so if you have a Mini dealership around...

so how easy does the clear bra come off? I mean I know it must be semi perm, but after a while does it start to peel and look like crap?

From your pics it looks really good, you can't even tell. Worth the $$$$?

What about future washing and waxing?

Nice ride by the way, what kind of wheels or those?

 

[Magic_Man]

I had the 3M clear bra installed on my fast over a year ago and am really happy with it - no peeling or anything like that. The only thing is when you wax your car, make sure you don't get any on the edge of the bra because it is a bitch to get off and make the bra a bit more visible. I'm pretty sure it came with a 5-year guarantee so I'd say it's a good deal.

 

[WaZzAp1101]

they dont look that bad.

 

[banditscout]

I really like the look of the black bra...it looks gnarly!!! Not a big fan of clear bras...you can't see them at a distance, but IMO when you're up close it really looks unclean...No offense...

 

[Magic_Man]

Haha none taken. The main comment I get is "S#*t dude, you got a huge scratch on your hood". From most angles you can't even see it, but yeah when you can it looks kinda weird but I like it because it's a subtle look to protect my fast.

 

[luvw]

I like the classic look of black bra and I'm not sure if I trust the 3m. I like the idea of a not being able to see it but still, something to think about.

Is that bra a c cup?
