Any bra recommendations?

Looking to get a full-coverage bra for my 2013 Cooper S roadster (with factory driving lights). Any suggestions? I'm not finding much information through a Google search, so I figured I'd ask the experts.

Looking forward to my first full summer of motoring, and want to take several cross-country trips and keep the front end protected.

Any help/suggestions would be appreciated!

Thanks,
Telly

Telly look here, they did both our MINI's with the 3M Scotch Clear Bra's
Both cover half up bonnet, and full front end/bumpers!

Try Victory Secrets.....



Have to have a sense of humor. I got the clear bra and love it. BE Careful, the old traditional one can't be on a dirty car. Grit will scratch the paint.

I honestly don't know what's worse, a bra covering the paint or the "possibility" that you'll have damage to that paint because you didn't cover up. A good heavy coating of wax should be the better decision IMHO.

I actually have a secret desire for the Playtex Cross Your Heart. They had great TV ads in the 70's.

as far as i understand, the current best clear bra is XPEL Ultimate - 10 year parts AND labor warranty - pretty hard to beat (3m's is 5 yr)

If there's any (key word is any) buffeting of the bra fabric when the car is being driven you are going to end up with paint damage. Think of what would happen after time if every few days you wiped down the front of your car with a dry towel.
