Does anyone have a white mustang with a bug shield or a bra on it? 700 miles and I've already gotten a chip on the leading edge of the hood [:@]Any pictures of anyone with a bra or shield on the hood would be appreciated!!!

On a better note, just got my 07 GT back from the dealer. They installed a cold air intake and magnaflow exhaust hehehe [8D]
Mines Scream'in Yellow and have had it on since purchase. I take it off every week to clean and polish.
I tried using the car without one for a week and got a small chip in the paint. [sm=boohoo.gif]

My GT is a show car, running it without one is not an option.

Oh by the way, if your a guy its not a BRA.........its a BRO.[sm=happy046.gif]

I purchased the one from Ford.........lays flatter.

I do a lot of highway driving, spending at least an hour on the highway daily, and can expect a chip on my hood at least once a month. I am currently having the shop touch up the paint, but I am getting tired of the repeated annoyance and sinking feeling in my chest when I find a new chip. I don't like the look of a bra (or bro, if you insist) but I've decided that I have to protect my baby.

Just use the touch-up paint until you have a good few of them, the get them painted.

I do not think the bug deflector looks that bad.
I like the look of it compared to a bra.
I own a Vista Blue Mustang and have been considering the bug deflector myself.
I am sure a shop could paint it to match.

Bras are for *****, bug shields are for really big *****. Buy touch-up paint for the stone chips that will occasionally happen. Don't cover up your Mustang.

How about a net? Back in the days, you could buy a net that would cover the front, but would be extremely easy to take off. Does anyone know where to get one?
