i cant see myself getting a car bra...

ive seen too many of my friends have them and end up with a line all the way across the hood where the upper end of the bra continiously beat the hood from the wind at speed...

especially with nissan's soft paint...

My Camaro actually had the line too! But it was from paint fade. The mask came with the car and I never thought to look under it. It was a novice mistake; I was really young when I got it.

I am not really a fan of these mask/bra because of how they look on vehicles (and how sexy our Zs look naturally) so that is why I only strap it on when I drive long distance. I tell you what though, damage control on bug kills is AMAZING. Washing post driving was a jiffy.

I am very meticulious when taking care of the car so I intend to do what I can to avoid damage to the paint, within my means, of course. But I nor did my passenger (a mask/bra advocate) did not experience or heard any flapping though.

True that! It was a tough choice for me because topless is sexier. I have an insane number of layers of wax (Turtle Wax ICE) so that always help too.

I bought the Nissan full-nose mask made for the 370Z. It cost about $25.00 more than the Covercraft, however the stretch fit is perfectly skin-tight so there is absolutely no looseness or folds to be seen anywhere. And the Nissan mask has the plastic hooks...no use of velcro at all.

From the looks of the Covercraft in the picture it doesn't look well designed given the folds in the material. It looks rather loose and ill-fitted.

The picture was when I was test fitting and I noticed that many are saying the same remarks so I clarified my reference about the picture in my initial post; may bad on the confusion. But I did not know the OEM has hooks. I may have to look into that! Thanks for your input.

I agree i just put on the Nissan mask on my 370.It fits like a glove and i like the use of the plastic hooks. I'd rather look at the black bra then look at and deal with chips.

To each his own so for me, I agree with you two. I much rather not sport a bra. BUT, as I mentioned in my previous posts in this thread, I do a lot of long interstate driving at a minimum of a bi-weekly frequency and during the spring and summer seasons, I straight up just don't want to sit and scrub off all of the ridiculous number of bugs that I kill. If having a bra to reduce the workload of cleaning my car (and minimize rock chips), then so be it. I consider it as a cleaning efficiency investment. Also, I'm the same way with waxing her so it's just as frequent.
