Car bra - Honda CRZ Forum: Honda CR-Z Hybrid Car Forums

Does anyone in here have a bra on their car? Curious to see what it looks like.

I wouldn't even consider a bra on the car, since the dust and grim really take a toll on the paint. Having a clear bra put on would be the best option for avoiding rock chips and the such.

^I agree. Don't do it. They do more damage than good. They look terrible too, no matter what car they are on. But that's just me.

But if you want to see what it looks like, you can go on Honda's website and build your car. When you get to "Accessories", "Exterior" should already be selected and add "Full Nose Mask." It should show up to the car you built.

Anyways, leave the bras to the boobies...

Clear bra for the win!

I totally agree....the bra for the cr-z would take away/cover up one of the best looking features of the car....the front. just the other day, i saw a red one with a bra drive by and it looked odd.

Has anyone tried one of the magnetic bras? I've been thinking about getting one

artkozak1 · 10-26-2011, 01:22 PM

don't get one...i had one on my civic for a bit and it turned the paint underneath it a yellowish hue...now grant it the car was white. in addition, the magnetic bras do not breathe or allow air to circulate though the bra. i suppose if you take it on and off and clean the underneath it every week or so it may be fine. i saw a picture of one for the cr-z on the web and in my opinion, it looks strange...it sits too high up on the hood.

Also - the Honda OEM front "full nose mask" is not compatible with the front lip spoiler if you have one or plan to get one - just another thing to keep in mind.

Don't bother with it. It holds water and dirt. It will fade the paint and is a headache.

I have the full nose mask, I only put it on for two weeks or so during lovebug season, and I take it off anytime its supposed to rain. I wax the front before and after the time its on, it does no harm.

It says in the instructions to keep the front regularly waxed and to not let it get wet. If you follow the directions for proper use it will not damage your car.

Also the front lip is held on by 7 plastic snaps, it takes 10 seconds to remove when you want to use the mask. I also use it for long trips to keep the bugs off.
