why would you want to ruin the look of your car by putting on a bra?

Bras belong on hot girls, but are better when they're on the floor

Granted the WS6 TA has curves like a supermodel, and they look good naked as well

I think that bras generally do more damage then good. Rocks will get up in them and scratch the paint. Also they will hold moisture and eventually will mess up the paint. I know, it happened to my 97 Firebird. I'd say leave it alone.

No. If you want the "protection" a bra gives get the 3m clear one installed.

I just put a bra on my 00 ws6 today. It came with the car, but this is the first time that I have put it on. I like the look. My car is white. But I am only going to leave it on for a couple of days because it WILL ruin the paint. If you leave them on for too long the y will trap dust and small rock and it will rub against the paint and ruin it. At least that it my experience with bras. But anyways I will see if I can get a picture to you tomorrow or saturday

Yeah, using a bra for a long period of time is the equivalent of a sandblaster. Personally, when I see a car driving around with a bra, I automatically assume they have tons of paint damage under the bra that they're trying to hide, I don't see any other reason for people to drive around with them on. They look ghetto, IMO, and totally degrade a car from looking decent to looking like it came out of the ghetto and going straight to the junkyard.

what brands do work well? I don't want to use one but I think if I clean my car for a carshow, I can put it on, drive down there and take it off and not have to scrape bug guts off of the nose. Any one else try this? Also, are there any that have a mesh that covers the fog lights to keep the bugs off of them?

Bras DON'T belong on a f-body. If you drive alot & think it looks dirty. WASH the damn car more often. All bras are good for is masking paint chips already there & ruining a good paint job.

Amen. I drive my car highway all the time, and I just have a new paint job. I don't have any chips yet. As for how dirty it gets, just drive smart, and wash often. A bra should never be added as a cosmetic mod.
