Yuk! If you want to protect the front of the car, have it clear wrapped. Excellent protection and virtually invisible.

bonnet bra's are a perfect way to ruin the look of any car!
As said by Phil, there are better ways to protect the paintwork

the problem i have is that due to a shoddy previous repair the paint has crack and peeled up. to repair is going to cost me near on £300 so im looking at cheap stop gap alternatives.

What about a used bonnet?

Raahil · 08-07-2017, 10:19 AM

See if you can get another bonnet from a scrappy in the same colour rather than destroying the look of your car

Needbmwpartzz · 08-07-2017, 10:24 AM

Bras are for Boobies.....not cars,so nay i say.

What about no bonnet? a continental quilt and pillows would look better than a car bra

CitizenKane · 08-07-2017, 12:11 PM

I've only ever seen these on Mk4 Golfs and B6 A4s! They can look ok on those cars but they really don't suit an e9x IMO.

MattOz · 08-07-2017, 12:34 PM

Nope!

Smokey33 · 08-07-2017, 02:10 PM

I really don't understand them. They look flaming awful.

RENT-A-GOAT · 08-07-2017, 04:28 PM

These things should be left to the VAG scene boys who can't get enough of them.

IanS100 · 08-07-2017, 09:12 PM

Good job this is an online forum or the OP would've been tarred and feather by now for suggesting such sacrilege!

Olly_P · 08-08-2017, 12:55 AM

Nay!! They look awefull unless you're 17 in your 'max power' Vauxhall Corsa!

Len_Beach · 08-08-2017, 01:19 AM

Get one along with some wind deflectors and mud flaps

The0pportunist · 08-08-2017, 03:27 AM

I know i will get stick for this but i too have been looking for a bonnet bra for mine, just for my euro road trip. Sadly though they don't make one for an F13
