Default Black bra's defeat laser detection?

I read the following "recommend additional products that can help delay vehicle detection by police radar and laser. The simplest is a black bra used to protect the front of a vehicle from road debris and stone chips. Because it covers much of the vehicle's reflective surface, a black bra dramatically reduces the light reflected back to a laser gun."

The article says that even the best radar/laser detectors do not really work with cops using the latest laser detectors. Sure, your detector goes off but its too late. Guy says the most you can do is reduce the reflective surfaces that lasers are aimed at, generally, the license plate/front area.

They look ugly but if they can help?

When you have a 320+ HP car, an open 8 lane highway with not a car in sight and its broad daylight, and you do not want to take advantage of the opportunity its like being in a moonlight room with a beautiful woman who has undressed for you and .....you are going to say NO!

if you want laser protection, simply get a jammer (look into laser interceptor, skip blinder). our cars have pretty nice grills for them to be mounted very, very steathly to avoid any detection, at least in the front.

You guys should just go trade in for a couple Prius's as im sure you would never write something on a forum that isnt true. You must really never exceed the speedlimit!

Thank you. I hate bra look, but I appreciate the knowledge.

If this is true, which I highly doubt, wouldn't a matte vinyl wrap achieve the same thing?

Simple solution.
1- Steal your neighbors plates
2- hit the gas
3- don't stop

Total BS. My wife wears a black bra (a nice one from Victoria's Secret with lace and a little push-up effect) and I got nailed on radar while she was in the car with me.

I can see that it might help a bit, but not like it makes you invisible or anything. We know a hard, flat surface bounces signals the best, so a soft surface wouldn't work quite as well. But who knows if it helps by 1%? 10%? 25%?
