 | Junior Member with 10 posts. | | | | Bras for cars! My friend and I are going up north for a long weekend, I live in Minnesota, and once you start driving up north the bug squashings are NASTY on the window and the grill. Is there a place online or a shop in the Twin Cities metro that my friend can get one of those Mustang bras to prevent some grossness? I should probably get my own too for my car, but I'm not the one driving it long distances for a while! | | Moderator with 96,644 posts. | | Join Date: Oct 2002 Location: South Eastern PA, USA Experience: Advanced age & experience | | Try VIctoria's Secret.
Seriously, I think I'd shop on the Internet and go mail-order, you'll probably do much better than a local retail store. | | Senior Member with 854 posts. | | Join Date: Nov 2007 Location: Plano, TX Experience: Intermediate | | Bug guts may look bad, but they can be removed. Bras often cause abrasive scratches on the car's finish, which cannot be removed. I suggest you go bralass! | | Junior Member with 10 posts. | | | | Okay, I'll let her know more damage could be done. Thanks guys! I was thinking the internet in the first place, cuz its so damn easy and doesn't waste any gas. hah.

I know it wasn't more than 5 years, as I only had the damn thing under 4. But I was the one who put the bra on, and when we took it off, there was a very, very noticeable line in paint fade between the two areas.
Sort of a car tan line.

#10 | I think cars looks stupid with the bra on them, might as well enjoy the look of the real car. After all, what am I saving it for? | | Community Moderator with 32,942 posts. | | Join Date: Sep 2004 Location: Texas Experience: cp/m --> |

#11 | I actually like them.
but then I liked louvers too.
now, those stupid aero kits with the HUGE tail fins that you don't even see on actual race cars, that's just flat out stupid. Used to drive a 97 saturn, great car, put 160k on it, would NOT go 90 unless driven of a cliff. Getting gas some night, some cat with the identical car pulled up, full aero, huge rear wing, side skirts, the works.
I'm like, dude, it's a saturn.

#12 | I once saw this,i will never forget it because this sight scared my mind for life!
Silver Scion box car thingy with yellow car bra on it with the smallest donuts i have ever seen ,a ridiculously huge primer wind scoop that looked like it belonged on a semi truck ,a big fart pipe and of course the o so original chrome hanging male genitalia that was almost dragging because of the donuts wheels. | | Moderator with 96,644 posts. | | Join Date: Oct 2002 Location: South Eastern PA, USA Experience: Advanced age & experience |

#13 | Gee, my 350Z doesn't have any wing, and the R&T tests claim it'll do 155MPH.  I've tested it up to about 125, no problem getting there in a hurry. | | Distinguished Member with 4,606 posts. | | Join Date: Dec 2006 Location: Ontario, Canada Experience: Getting it |

#14 | Friend of mine had a bra on his Corvette ZR1. The bra was designed to foil radar detectors. Should have been a standard option already installed. |  THIS THREAD HAS EXPIRED.
