Bonnet bras

[sssaaaxxxooo]

Other than looking fucking shit - whats the point in a Bonnet bra? Do they have some sort of practical usage, or is it just to look like shit?

Serious question.

[saxo-dude-16v]

to protect the bonnet from stone chips.

Simples.

They're also sexy on the right car.

They look shit.

Bra's are for breasts,cars with Bra's are usually driven by breasts.

Gloss black bonnet and roof. Smoothed and painted handles, door strips, bumper strips, lower valances, mirrors and grilles.

It was indeed on gloss black steels too.

Only thing bonnet bras look good on are old style bettles and vw camper / samba of the same era

[devilsadvocate]

They look shit in my opinion, looks like crappy black plastic stuck on the bonnet

I understand thier use but good god they look gay :homme:

bras are for holding a womans baps at an eye catching angle, not for trying to make a car look good.

[adamm]

i think id rarther look at stone chips than one of them tbh
although it can suit some cars. just not saxos and clios and corsas etc lol

[Lewis]

Normally they are just for protecting the cars paintwork. For example cars for motorway miles or lots of driving would benefit from one

[MiniGibbo]

You can also get front bumper bra's but thankfully the "dub gays" havent cottoned on yet and theyre still for purpose rather than "looking rad"

I like the look of it, kind of like an old touring car.

[MiniGibbo]

Yer they can look good but arnt anything special to be blunt..

[Nik_L]

Id have a Vento Vr6.

[thelooneytuner]

I think they look utter shite and usually spoil a car, i think id rather have stone chips tbh

[0rang3peel]

They are decent on certain cars... just a marmite thing. I may get one for my golf

[Ryan]

ive seen alot of damaged paint by bras. Ironic that everyone bangs on about them protecting paint.

You could just do what most people do and fit a sheet of clear vinyl which is designed to protect and doesnt look absoulte dogwank.

[0rang3peel]

Thing is aswel if people really did buy them to protect the paint then they would buy a full bra which look utter shite, so that argument doesn't really stand tbh.

[thelooneytuner]

Surely having a bonnet bra on will fade the paint at different speeds? so you will end up with a patch that looks spotless and the other will look naff?

[Predator_R32]

Bras can protect from stone chips but like ive found out leave them on for a long period of time and not tightly fitting ones cause damage, most stones are flicked up at about bonnet height thats why theres just bonnet ones a plenty, all started from porsches iirc

On the label it does say to take it off after 3 days and leave 2 days for paint to breath, also have to wash your car plenty

My golf comes with them from factory or it may of been an optional extra im not sure
