Bra !!

Has any one got one fitted is it worth it ??

BRA FOR GOLF MK1

Chudd, that took my "NON BROADBAND" comp ages to download and boy was I disappointed with what I saw!

Still can't find that trim anyway by the way. Must have got chucked out, thats all I can think of  :dontknow:

Cheers adolf .. now have a good pair , hubs ended up being a good buy after stripping mine down , so trip was worth it thanks again ........

I found one of those in a private sale on the Bay yesterday too... I was quite dissapointed when I saw how little of the car was covered!

I'm sure over time you'll get grit under that'll play havoc with the paint

Personally I think car bra's are ugly as sin! So not cool

There are loads of cars in America wit these on.  They are pretty awful though - I mean what is the point?  You fit it so as not to get stone chips which can make your car ugly - but all it does is make your car even uglier. Given the choice I'd rather drive something everyday with stone chips in the bonnet than something with one of those strapped to the front.

Exactly Steve, whats the point (other than with show cars)? Suppose the paint looks nice when its parked in the garage.

I heard rumours many years ago, that if you left the Bra on the car for ages, then the paint uncovered pain would fade and when you took it off you had a nice shiny unfaded section  :roll: . Also also, if again left on too long they can start to sweat and deteriate the pain. Would'nt have thought though that anyone would be stupid enough to leave them on all the time……  ops:

Surely there would also be an issue with moisture getting trapped underneath it if left on overnight?

Yeah - thats right.  When you remove the bra you will have tan lines!!

Particularly on a red car - red fades the worst (and there seems to eb loads of red Mk1's about)

  Now where's the missus so I can re-check this theory !!

I remember as a kid my Dad had one on the GRILLE! (Not bonnet) of his Morris Marina in the winter - but for a purpose!

This one serves no purpose but doesn't even look big enough to be a fashion accessory like the American ones.

IMO they look naff!
