I was wondering what most of you do to avoid paint chips on your hood. I know I can buy a bra, but I don't like the look. Any alternatives? Thanks in advance!

They make these clear bras, it's like a clear sticker that goes in places in the front of the car where rock hits. There's several companies that make them. I think www.xpel.com is one of them. Snook!! You should sell these!!! Heh....

I think it's too late for me to get it. I already got a deep chip in the front of my hood. And already have several chips on my bumper.

DAMN! Those clear bras are really expensive, WTF? It's like 200 bucks for the set. Geez. Oh well, my car is already scratched up. After I get it painted, I might get it.
Who has it on there TL? Is it really noticeable? I always hated those black leather or whatever materials they are made of bras.

I have it, and it's not noticeable at all at all unless you look closely.
