Its a personal choice of course. I've used one on both my old LT-1 (14 years) and now the Z (5 years) for a total of 19 years.

Pro: It keeps the front like the day you bought the car. The front of my Z looks brand new under the bra.

Con: A very good wax job underneath is a must....repeated every few months. Never but never drive it in the rain or wash it etc with the bra on.

Besides, I like the looks of the black bra , chrome wheels and the yellow Z are a good combination.

Not a fan. Granted, my Z's paint isn't worthy of protecting, but even on nicer cars that I've owned, I don't like bras. I just don't see the appeal.

This bra won't screw up your paint

It snaps on and is very soft

Cheers

Im with David.Id prefer not to have anything of course but chips are a fact so I use one of these and love it,anything to keep the paint looking as good as possible.Ive got a used one for sale if anybody wants it,$60.On the other hand Ive got one of the Speed Lingerie covers,paid almost $500 for the thing and I hate,will probably never go back on the car.

IMHO, Bras are for women.

The clear plastic sheets are probably a good alternative if you are a committed waxer, but I've driven my ZR-1 for 17 years , for over 50K mi. and only collected a couple of little chips. So what, it's the "patina of age", easily touched up.
I've got a white/black car and I don't like the look, (sorry, but the car pictured above is exhibit A).

DISCLAIMER -
The opinion above is my humble opinion alone and is not intended to offend other owners that may have applied various decorations to their cars, including, Bras, multiple additional emblems, decals, vanity plates , chrome accessories, wings, mudflaps, flames, or fuzzy dice. My design philosophy is simply, "if it doesn't make the car faster, stop quicker, or handle better......restrain yourself and leave it alone."
But, of course, this is not meant to besmirch the taste of other owners who feel the need to festoon their cars with the above mentioned regalia. More power to ya.

Do you honestly think I put this on my car because I think it looks good or would enhance the appearance?The thing looks like the bumper needs to be painted from a distance,if it saves the paint it works for me.For those that dont mind the rock chips,so be it,my car has next to none and thats how I chose to keep it.In your opinion should people do away with seat covers,car covers or anything else that helps to protect the car from wear?
