I have a friend who is into detailing, and therefore loves to keep his paint in tip top condition. So he decided to buy one of the bonnet bras for his Jetta.

Imagine his horror when he took off the bra after a month of constant use, and the edge had rubbed through the paint and into the primer. Ironic when they are meant to stop paint damage! Horrible things.

Think they can look ok on the right car, but not fords imo. Saw a pic of a white 3dr with a white bra on think it was full frontal didnt look quite so noticeable.
