Clear Bra for the Lexus IS-F

If you are driving an IS-F, you absolutely need a clear bra. A clear bra does exactly what it seems like it would do. It is a clear film that covers the front of the car, protecting it from chips and dings. If you are riding fast in this car, you will no doubt run into insects and pebbles. These will quickly sand blast away the front of the car. I previously drove an IS350 without a clear bra, and the entire front end was quickly ruined. The IS-F is in nearly mint conditon. On my way to Chicago, somebody tossed a thick floor mat out of their window which I was unable to dodge due to traffic on both sides of me. It slammed into the front end of my car. Had I not placed the clear bra on my vehicle, it would have slammed into the paint, right through the clear coat and into the metal. I thankfully was able to replace that little area of clear bra and my vehicle was looking new again. For only $300 or $400 you can save your vehicle from harsh depreciation due to rock chips and bug etching. I wish I could have extended the clear bra to the entire hood, because I now have several irreperable dings on the hood. The best part about the clear bra is the fact that is protects the vehichle from UV rays, and still retains the same luster as the rest of the vehicle. You can also comfortably remove bugs from the bra without worrying about scratching the surrounding finish on the vehicle. If you drive fast, you must get this! This was the best $350 I spent on my Lexus IS-F. The only downfall to having the clear bra is a small line you will be able to see on your hood, where the bra ends. This is not a big deal, but people will notice it if up close to the vehicle and will most likely comment on it. It does look like a scratch. Regardless, the clear bra is a great option.
