Ok, so wearing a bra for the nose of your car was only cool way back in the 80's was it? Nobody does it any more? Will you guys laugh at me if I do it? I drive 80MPH for aprox 2 hour round trip per day. I bought my '02 with 2700 miles on it one month ago and it's already getting sandblaster from this horrible St. Louis commute now with almost 7000 miles on it. I can't stand what it's doing to my stang. I keep a thick coat of wax on the whole car and especially nose and wipe bugs off immediately (1/2 hour of my trip is through corn fields, the other half on the race track known as I-270) so I get pelted with bugs, rocks, ladders, sofas.

Anyway, aside from looking er, uhm, soul or ethnic, is it really true that they can mess with your paint or trap moisture or cause impotence?

 

The car bra will scuff the paint up, I don't no why people use it. I have seen a wreaked car with a bra still on it (lot of good that did) lol.

 

What color's your car? I would also worry about the sun fading the rest of the paint. Therefore, when u take the bra off, your front will look alot brighter.

 

i think if your wrists hold themselves up don't get a bra.

 

So you are saying that in addition to looking kinda ethnic they also may a car (or driver) seem kinda 'alternative lyfestylerish?)

 

The car is mineral grey. Looks sometimes like nice dark silver, in other light it almost has a bit of brown in it. In never looks the same two days in a row. Wierd paint color. I just put the black MUSTANG letters on the rear bumper today. Looks great in black against silver.

 

I think the bra was in the past a sylist feature (to some people) and others of course use it to protect the nose of their car. I drive 2 hours minimum daily (not including beer runs, church, etc). 1/2 of my drive is 65 MPH through bad bug laden corn fields and the other 30 minutes is up to 80MPH getting my stang nose sandblasted with road crap. It really bothers me and so I'm asking how out of style are they and how damaging can they be. Why get one if everybody hates them AND they cause more damage if they prevent is what I am thinking. Anybody on MF have one and admit it?

 

Thats a tough one.... use it or not. I know of one guy that i grew up with, it ruined his paint. But he never took it off all the time to let it air out under there. On the other hand you are dealing with getting sand blasted. Well.. Not sure if I would use one or not. Guess if you can put up with people there screwing with you then its ok.

 

I would get a bra, for only long highway trips, then take it back off for just around town driving

 

Good point, if I remember right my buddies came off rather easily. Save the paint and your image at the same time! LOL....
