I am thinking of getting a bra for my car because I do so much interstate driving. I saw one somewhere that had more of a screen over the grill. I read about the invisible bras but I think I will go with the real thing. Also, are all the bras basically black? Where is the best place to purchase one and which is the easiest to put on and take off?

Victorias Secret? Sorry, couldn't help it.
I used one a few years ago with a Mustang and it rubbed through the paint so I don't use them anymore. Not sure if they have been improved over the last few years.

After seeing the 2 different brands in person, the Colgan bra looks the best. It fits on real tight. The only plus that I see LeBra had was that since it didn't fit as tight, it was easier to put on/take off.

The Colgan is offered by one of the site vendors........

There are two types the sport bra (hood/uppergrill only) and full bra which includes the sport bra and a lower mask which protects the bumper/fenders around the head lights. (I think the lower mask is a PITA to put on). The colgan brand is the one I'm most familiar with. I even have a set of mirror covers

I've had my set for over 2 years, but I try not to make it a dialy thing. I don't put it on except for road trips (@ least one a week). Lately with the weather good I've left the upper portion on for about 3 weeks w/no problems. To reduce the chance of wear on the paint:

* Have a good coat of wax on the finish.
* Car is clean/free of dust & dirt before putting it on.
* If it rains, I take it off to prevent the sun from heating up the moisture
trapped between the mask and finish.
* The fit has got to fairly taut if any part of is loose enough to flap in the
wind don't use it, otherwise it'll just beat your paint to death.

My 2 cents

Well, I asked my wife....then read the original post.....forget it.....

Before you decide which to put on you need to try an experiment. Take a piece of screen and put in front of a window fan and see how it changes the air flow. It will reduce it quite a bit. Also the directions for any bra I've seen say to remove if wet. It will cause the paint to cloud. They were originally designed for cars being towed to shows. I would personally go without, but that's just me. I like the natural look, in cars and women.

I have a Colgan two-piece. I did have some screen sewn on the bottom piece to keep the bugs and road crap out. It doesn't seem to effect the engine temp.
