Hey guys I'm looking to buy a leather bra for the car because the winter is harsh. Please someone help me LOL.

 

Well... I'm torn. I have a leather bra with very light use and the portion that goes onto the hood....

However, there are 2 problems.:

1. All the mounting snaps are still on my car (and I really don't want to take them all off) so you would need to find someone with those.

2. The leather bras are hell on your paint and finish. When wet, they hold the moisture against the paint and can cause discoloring.
AND, in a salty area, the salt when get down there when wet, and when it dries, its like salty sand paper grinding against your car.

The previous owner gave me the bra to the car when i bought it from him. I had the hood portion on for about a month before I started to notice a paint discoloration so I took it off.....

So... uhhhh, we got a deal?

 

get a clearbra.

if you come down here, i'll help you install it. you can find clearbras on ebay for less than $50 shipped.

 

WoW... IDK... I'm starting to think mabye the bra is not a good idea. I'm going to have to do a littel research on this lol.

 

This sounds a littel better... but someone once told me that the paint gets dull after like a year or 2. and you must remove the clear bra and repaint the entire bumper. Is their any truth to this?

 

I have a bra with all of the attachment hardware sitting in my garage. It was only used for one winter and looks brand new. I have the one that fits with the aero package. I have a clear bra installed now, however the black bra does a good job as long as you keep the surface underneath clean and keep a good coat of wax. I live in eastern PA, near I78 if you are interested in purchasing. I would say $50.

 

omar you have mazdaspeed. i dont think they make a bra for mazdaspeed

 

i dont think so. i think mysql has had his front end clearbra'd for a few years.

and you have the mazdaspeed front end. big whoop. so it'll take an extra hour. what needs to happen is to buy a large sheet. in a roll. and then cut it out custom.

still no sweat. if we start at 12, we should be done by 4. 5 absolutely latest.

 

Yea I figured I could make it strech. I've saw a local guy do it.



I think We may have to do this. but its definitly to cold right now. if you think you can send my a link where I can buy the roll thet would be cool.


















I just might take you up on that. Give me a day.

 

aww, damn, lost a possible sale.

I had a clear bra that I gave to one of my local forum members - I couldn't use it because it is pretty noticeable on black cars...

I would go for the clear bra.

 

yeah, its best to apply clearbra when its hot out. 85+ degrees. and you need a hair dryer/heat gun.
