I get a free Accessory. Help me Pick!

see this first.

Do you think i could get the scraches and dent on the hood, bumper, doors, sideskirt, and side mirrors fixed? it probably wouldn't be the equivelent of the cost of tha wing.

Ideas?

i think a lip spoiler looks best on the TSX, so i would probably opt for a clear bra if they provide it

forget the spoiler, a clear bra would be the best bet...then throw on a lip spoiler if you really want one.

well this is what i did. My baby is all fixed up. Now i want to protect.

I know that the clear bra is popular and probably protects well. Right now i do not have the cash for it. And i'm unsure because of how perminent it seems to be. (can it be removed?)
What are the risks and down sides of this solution?

Similarly i've heard that the nose mask also has downsides (other than looks). Roomers of scratching and mungyness if you don't remove it every once in a while. Is this all true?

Whats the best way to protect?

the clear bra is not permanent. you can remove it later on if you dont like it by using a hairdryer/heat gun. i think the risks of this solution is that some ppl say the clear bra material might turn yellow. but i've had mine for almost a year and no yellowing at all. also, i think there is a 5 year warranty on the clear bra material so that should pacify some of your worries.

personally i went with the clear bra because you can hardly see it and you dont have to take it on/off like the regular car bra
