lcmb25 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Has anyone ever put a bumper and hood bra on their car? I searched but short of going thru 500 pages of pics, I was hoping someone could post one up for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zues Marine Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 just google image search 'subaru outback car bra'... i see them around here from time to time but really, they dont look like they line up right, and it makes it look like the hood doesnt close all the way... i dont remember what its called but there's some transparent vinyl or something like that that you put on the front and is supposed to protect everything the same way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCASEYS Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 3m clear bra I donated to LegacyGT.com which allows me to have this nifty signature. If anything SCASEYS posts ever becomes a sticky i'm gonna light this whole place on fire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twisty Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 problem with those is, the more wind they see the more they rub on the paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennyfvholla Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 They don't look right and they scratch the paint. And after a while, the paint underneath doesn't match the rest of the car. it's a waste of money. Just keep your car clean whenever it gets dirty and you'll have no need for the bra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcmb25 Posted March 26, 2013 Author Share Posted March 26, 2013 Wow, that fits terrible, not going that route for sure now! Thanks for finding the picture! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stang70Fastback Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 The problem I have with a hood bra is that it serves the same purpose as those thin plastic films that come on new items to keep delicate surfaces from getting scratched. However, they look terrible in the process. So basically you are using something that looks ugly because you are trying to keep it looking nice... but what the **** is the point if it looks like crap the entire time you own it?! I always have to resist the urge to rip off the clear plastic protectors on electronics in other people's homes. They curl up at the edges and get all yellowed and I'm like TAKE IT OFF, and they are like NO, I WANT IT TO STAY LOOKING LIKE NEW! The hell... And don't say resale value, because (a) a few rock chips on the nose of the car aren't going to affect anything, and (b) enjoy the damned car and its good looks and screw the few extra dollars you'll gain on trade-in! /rant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
