    Black Camaro with bra..?

    Anyone have pictures of their black camaro with a front end bra? I'm wondering how it will look, I plan on getting my bumper painted but i dont want to do that just so it can get all messed up again.

    I either want to do this or find a way to fix these chips and such or wax them until you cant see them. Any suggestions>

    I think he is talking about the bra that is like a lexan shell that floats on some rubber washers.

    They are much more expensive.

    just google it. It's like a piece of clear sharan wrap that is custom cut for your bumper. It's made of some substance that will deflect rock chips/etc at 100+mph. It's perfectly clear so there is no "that looks retarded" factor.

    yes they are fairly expensive. here's one for a camaro: http://www.autopaintguard.com/kit_se...5&submodel=205
    as you can see, they're precut, and prbably peal/stick kinda stuff.

    do not put one of those POS on your car man, it will ruin your paint and possibly take it completly off. just ask a buddy of mine, we took his off and all the paint under it decided it wanted to come off with it

    please note zboner is talking about a bra, not the clear bra. I think clear bras aren't meant to be removed

    Okay this is getting confusing, so aside from what Zboner says about the normal bra... this clear 3M thing is a good idea for preserving a new paint job on my front bumper?

    Bras are bad....... if you want to protect your front end the wax the hell outta of it. the clear sticky paper stuff was actually brought up tp me by an owner i know in the city here and he swears by it. The only down side is you peel it off your taking all the paint with it you can guarentee it.
