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%?

Default Black Bra / Red Z

I certainly do not think my black bra on the red convertible with a black top looks ugly. I've got a lot of complements on it . Recently from Officer Bennett, with the Texas Highway Patrol, as he issued me a warning ticket for not displaying my license plate, and a mere 70 in a 65 zone.
Cheers,
Chuck

Your headlight reflectors bounce 90-95% of the energy back to the gun. You have to mask them to get any real change in detection range.

Man! I can't remember wether she had a bra on or not but I haven't been nailed in a car since high school.
