Temporary Bra Cover Paint Protection

Bodytechz · 01-20-2011, 12:17 PM

Although I personally don't like to put "Bras" on my cars, I would like to have some sort of rock chip protection when I travel. Thought about using a bra for this purpose but is there something I can put on the areas that will protect against paint ware while I'm using it? Ideas PLEASE!? Thanks in advance...

A few members have had very good results with a clear bra. It can get pricey but most people don't even notice you have it on unless your really up close.

Thanks Cmike, but I am concerned that with my PW paint that the clear bra will yellow over time and have to be replaced. I was just looking for something that will protect my front end on long trips (which I don't do that often). Thanks for your input!

I have the Venture Shield clear bra on the front, 18 inches onto the hood, the mirrors and also some protection on lower panels - $600 installed. You can't even tell it is on, it offers great protection and will never yellow. If you want or need to remove it, you simply peel it off with no damage to the paint. I've only had it for less than 2 months, but know others that have had it for years. Good product. Check it out.

My friend recently used the temporary clear bra stuff from road wraps (buyroadwrap.com) when he drove from SoCal to Vegas for SEMA in his show truck... it looks terrible on, but if you're only using it for road trips its easy enough to remove when you don't need it, otherwise the clear bras are the best bet... if you keep it cleaned and protected they'll go a solid 7 years or more without yellowing and when they do you simply have them redone.

Thanks for your help guys, guess it comes down to getting a clear bra installed as being my best option, I was just afraid of the yellowing issue, but it sounds like that it will take years for that to happen.
