You guys running clear bras on your car? I was going to just repaint my bumper and hood every couple years instead of putting the bra on, but now I am kinda leaning towards it (its not cheap up here though, not even close). I just hate the lines and the fact that when you wax the car your not waxing the car.

No clear bra for me. If you are going to do it, get a full hood, bumper, and fender wrap. Check Auto Obsessed, they have a sweet shop out there.

I love/hate mine... the 3M is garbage and scratches way too easy. The Ventureshield on my Lincoln has held up very well. For car shows the clear bra always looks like crap compared to a well maintained paint job... but I have no rock chips either....

my bra-less G is 9yrs old (im the original owner) and she has very minor chips from regular use, but it's hardely noticable from like a foot away.

my Z is bra-less too on the front. i have 2 chips size of a sesame seed that i touched up. i was like but then my car is not a show car so oh well. i use a 4" wide clearbra along the bottom of the rockers that i installed myself. helps prevent front tire kickup scratches. you can get the scotch 4" roll at amazon. get the 6mil one.

hope to have both of them out loose by mid-march.
