As requested, I'm posting some pics in different angles with the Black 'TL' Bra from Acura. Let me know what you think. I drove up to Erie from Pitt, and I think right now, there are about 800000 flies on the BRA, but none on the front of the car.

I'm liking it. Any problems with flapping in the wind? I'm seeing it with a blacked out center section

Honest opinion?...UNCLE BEN'S!!

I know it was made for the TL...but it just doesn't "make" the TL! Follow me? But to each his own.

Just saying cuz you asked...

**edit** If you ONLY use it to catch flies on the highway...go for it! But after you get home...GARAGE IN A BOX!!

Not a fan. Looks out of place. Get the clear bra, it looks 100X better and protects just as well but won't scratch your paint like the leather bra will when dirt gets under it.

its really takes away from the lines of the car. but if i did a lot of hwy driving, i would prob keep it on...or get a clear bra

This is what it looks like after a nice drive from Pitt , and it doesn't flap in the wind.





But... notice, no bugs on the top of the hood

Unfortunately, all my driving is highway
although none is painfull thanks to the TL

I gotta get me a clearbra just to drive to work! Friggin rock chips from I270 construction! Maybe I'll get one of those until I can afford it...NOT! LOL! It might mess up my grilles!

but at least you're protecting your paint from all that road debris, or roadkill it seems. hmmm do splattered bugs count as roadkill?

And to think, all of that was from one trip down to Pitt. I had my car washed by the dealership just prior to going down there!

Never again!!!

Save your money and get some PPF (ie. ClearBra). If I were to drive a long way (~500 miles) I would probably get an ugly vinyl bra to put over the clearbra just to keep all the bug juice off. Otherwise, it is the PPF hands down.

im not a fan of those bras but its purpose did well for you on your trip.

Thank you pravin.george!

Those pics are exactly what I was looking for.

I have to drive down I-4 in Florida a lot for work and the love bug season is god awful this year.

I will be purchasing one shortly and keep it on for the duration of the season (2-3 months). I will be sure to clean underneath the bra so no scratching of the paint occurs.

That thing is freaking ENORMOUS!!!!!!!

Wouldn't be too bad if it didn't take up half of the hood, that is crazy

buhhbuhh

yea i mean this is great for when you're gonna sell the car.. because i would love to see this on a car im about to buy... but having it on while i drive is a big no-no IMHO...

but yea if you ever get some money together... put a grand down for some clear-bra and you'll be set !

darksom1

I know right? That's the thing! It totally takes over the TL like a gigantic glove. I ain't gonna front, after seeing that, and getting flashbacks about previous trips, I would put one on to go down the road with.

BUT...and dammit I mean BUT...as soooooonnnn as I take the exit where I am going...I hit a shopping center parking lot or a gas station and that monstrosity comes off, goes into a ready-plastic bag, and nobody riding with me better tell anybody it was on! Or they walking back!

sunnyflava99

Looks like a ninja...
Not feeling it though! Keep it on for bug season then take it off!

pravin.george

If I were to take that thing off every time, it would be really annoying, not to mention that during bug season, with that nasty amount of flies, it would be really really difficult to touch that stuff. I'd clean it, and then maybe remove it -- but to take it off at the 'first shopping center' that would be really difficult, not to mention disgusting. Then I'd ruin the interior

My 86 Camaro had a bra on the front. Now all you need is the Louvers on the rear window! ;-)

PRAVIN.GEORGE!! I RECKON I DO OWE YOU AN APOLOGY THERE SIR!

I was all on you about how ugly that bra was when you were trying to explain to me how handy it was cuz of lovebug season! Well...lookee here at what happened to this other poor guy on AZ:

The NON-pravin.george way :



The pravin.george way :


I WILL, I REPEAT I WILL, WEAR AN UGLY ASS BRA ON THE FRONT OF MY CAR, BEFORE I ALLOW STELLA TO HAVE TO ENDURE THIS HEINOUS, SENSELESS, AND OFFENSIVE ASSAULT OF BUG "LOVE JUICE"!!!

pravin.george

It'll hopefully be coming off as the season progresses.

Man, if I have to do some travelling in my ride (which I mostly don't since the gf can't drive a stick, heh heh) I will be wearing one! LOL!

My problem will be worst than his because of my grilles!
