Re: Any bra users out there?
They certainly do keep the paint from chipping but they also can cause paint
fading and tint changing. I have 2 Del Sol's, a red one and a green one and both have paint deterioration under the bra. I bought the cars used and they were like that when I got them. I have no idea how long the bras were on there, posibly 3-4 years. I live in southern Indiana and commute to Northern Illinois for work so I drive through the same conditons as you do with rain, sleet, snow, salted/sanded roads and extreme heat. I take the bras off once a year to clean all the gunk from under them and clean the bras themselves.

Re: Any bra users out there?
have you thought about a magnetic bra? supposed to stop all of the problems
of dirt getting under it as its a magnet, no room for anything to move under it, also molds to the hoods lines better, here is a pic of my friends p5 with one http://nftunerz.punkmac.com/flavp5/DSC_2143.jpg --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Yep, never saw much point to a little strip of protection on the front of the hood. |

This confirms the general impression that I got from the previous replies. Yours is especially helpful because you are also from Toronto. I agree that the integra looks great in a bra - nice car ;) |
