nemesis360 0 Posted June 19, 2007 My friend had one on his MK4 when he took it off it had scratched the bonnet, he was not a happy chappy! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

herisites 0 Posted June 19, 2007 Im also in 2 minds about bonnet bras, my bonnet is bloody covered in stone chips as well as my front bumper and it really lets my car down as i have worked so hard bringing the paint up to a good standard but the front end just lets it down. So i think if i was to get the front resprayed in the future i would get one to protect it further. I also think that bras suit the low and wide corrados better, as they just have a menacing look!

vwdeviant 0 Posted June 19, 2007 Q: What do the "Tolberone tubes" do? Are they supposed to deflect the stone that was supposed to hit your bonnet into your windscreen? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nemesis360 0 Posted June 19, 2007 I think it scratched coz some dirt got under it and the ground into the paint Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted June 19, 2007 Q: What do the "Tolberone tubes" do? Are they supposed to deflect the stone that was supposed to hit your bonnet into your windscreen? that was going to be my exact question, I have been wondering that for ages. Personally I would only go for the bonnet section of the bra, not the full (around the head lights) thing, they look bad, and fit bad from what I have seen. I do think I'll be investing in the bonnet bit when I finally get mine resprayed though. Whats a ball park figure on the cost? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted June 19, 2007 Has anyone on here got a full autobra for their Corrado? That looks fcukin terrible. Talk about a car that's trying to climb into a sock 10 times too small for it. Looks utterly schitt. Bras look good cupping together a pair of nice titties. On cars, they look w@nk. If you're that worried about chips, don't drive the thing. Everyone gets chips, get over it!

A1 VR6 0 Posted June 19, 2007 I heard it referred to as the full Gimp suit on Sunday at Inters :lol: What I will say is that it does protect the bonnet but I've only used it once and it left marks where the toblerone bits are obviously because of the movement and slightly additional weight of this part of it - not due to dirt or grit as the paintwork was spotless. I am reluctant to use it again unless I can prevent it from marking the paint. Oh and it is a Colgan which is one of the more expensive makes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted June 19, 2007 what about cutting up some microfibre cleaning clothes, and lining the weighed sections with them? that should prevent marking? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Corrado911 0 Posted July 12, 2007 Totally off topic, sorry...but will a G60 bra fit on a VR6 hood? I found a guy selling brand new one from VW (OEM) at a fairly good price but he bought it for his G60 and never used it, then ended up selling the car with out the bra. And to get back on topic...I think their great for the long drives :thumb right: ..again i apologize for asking in this post... I just didn't want to start a new thread for this question. Thanks. :king: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

djpaulnash 0 Posted August 25, 2007 why anyone would want to spend their hard earned money making their car look cool , and then fit one of these is beyond me!. why bother spending £1000's on the look of a car to put on one of these things and look HIDEOUS!!, and they scratch and mark the paintwork themselves!!! WHY WHY WHY???????????????. Stone chips are a way of life, why fit one of these 'bonnet only' protectors, just to look stupid and it damage the paintwork anyway???. complete waste of money spending ££££ to look cool then get laughed at everywhere you go Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
