bonnet bra's,,, cant decide if they look cool or not

[Tamiyoman]

I would rather worm the dog by hand live with a few stone chips than put a bonnet bra on a car

Never had any comments other than p*ss taking. And no I'm not posting a pic of my Eddy wearing one for someone to bring it up at a later date! 

....No need for you to post one, Martin - The forum's 2013 calendar now has a shot of Miss October (your car) wearing a bra

Tbh i think they look total toss buuut i do run one on long  motorway journeys. For me its there to do a job and not about looks. It comes off as soon as i arrive at my destination. Tbh its down to personal preference imo. 

Spot on Gazon! I'm with you there, I think they look sh1t as, I'd rather take the stone-chips than have that on my car. I can sort of understand it if you're really  into detailing and exhibiting your car at shows, but then I don't really understand that for Golfs. For me, these are every-day cars to be driven, if you want to do all that mallarky, get yourself an Austin Healey or a TR6! I go down to North Devon quite a lot, and like you I'd consider one for the journey down, but that would be it.

I posted a similar thread a little while back because I couldn't understand why people had them:

PMSL!!!

Most cars on this forum are performance orientated, it suits certain a certain style of car IMO

[Stanipkiss]

I am sick of stone chips!!
My car gets on the motorway and gets off 35 miles later  Mon-Fri, only just put it on yesterday.

It will probably come off on Friday night!
Should have been £65 but auction on ebay ended at stupid o'clock in the morning so only paid £12 inc postage.

i do almost 700 miles a week in my R32, have got an original VW R line one which fits great.

Function over form for me ( I also have gay headlight protectors for this very reason)

many times 

Mk4 Headlights are glass though and not cheap to replace, so Im happy with having them on

I do my fair share of motorway miles - M1 and M27 mostly but also plenty of fast A-road dual carriageways such as A3 and A34, and I rarely suffer from stone chips etc. With a carbon bonnet I'm not so fussed anyway - It ain't gonna rust.

[scottm72]

seems I opened up a can of worms with this thread, they certainly look interesting, my car is met black,,, from what I can see its the best colour car to have one of these fitted.
my bonnet isn't to bad for chips but I may get a bonnet respray done after next xmas, just had the car 3 months and takes a while to get through all the jobs tbh.
I watched a film last night called three amigos with nick nolte,,,, from the eighties - remember it - ????
anyway there was a red Porsche on there with a black bonnet bra 
it looked shocking lol and wtf did they call it a bra ????
they could have called it something like a stone killer,,,,, black death,,, or that fooking annoying advert on tv that is on right this minute with that plonker I want to strangle selling cillit bang, barry scott his name is,,,, most annoying guy on tv,,,, just want to hurt him 
they could have called it the cillit bang wrap 
anyway cheers guys
