Default Front end bras

While not exactly wash and wax related, it seems having a bra on the nose of the vehicle or not might dictate products used when detailing. Anyone here use a bra on their ride? If so, what type and are you happy with it? Does having the bra affect the paint or your detaling methods?
Thanx.

Thanx - while not trying to be cheap, I guess I should have been a bit more clear. I was thinking of a lower cost alternative. I'll kick down the $650 if I need to for the clear bra, it just won't happen tomorrow. I've got a spring semester of college to pay for after Thanksgiving

I decided to go with a clearbra, but have used regular bras in the past for years.
If you are going to use a bra, be sure to make sure the surface is completely clean before installing. It is a good idea to get a few coats of a good quality wax on the car before putting a bra on.
You sill also want to wash the car about once a week and clean the inside of the bra as well. Any dirt that gets trapped between the bra and the paint will cause swirl marks or possible scratches, but as long as you clean your car once a week, this shouldn't be problem.
The best bra you can get for the S is a Colgan bra. They can be had for about $100, not a bad deal. They work really well. I used one for a bit before I got my clearbra.
