ive had a clear bra on my car since they day i bought it not one ding on the hood or on the front form a rock chip. If you don't plan on changing your front bumper anytime soon its the say to go. if you have a clear bra the paint wont change color either ive had mine for 3 years my paint has not changed colors and the clear bra material is still clear as day 1.

So driving something that looks like a clown mobile doesn't matter much either?

My solution?? Well, I'm always super busy at work so for a quick fix I was thinking... Blue Painters tape... and plenty of it.
I will most likely tape the front up to the first half of the hood.
Will it look funny?... yes... but as long as the paint stays in good shape thats all that matters.
Does anyone else have any better ideas??
PS: I did this when I owned my Lancer Evolution and it helped.
Thanks in advance!!

If you happen to live in Florida we have a nasty little insect that are called Love Bugs, they swarm in the millions, without a bra on your car for love bug season your paint will be completely destroyed as the acid in their body's eat through the paint http://www.ehow.com/way_5388039_tips...s-off-car.html
