Title: Bra? yey or ney?
Post by: keano on July 10, 2011, 10:55:57 am: Morning morning!

I'd like to start by apologising for the disappointing topic title. I know if id have seen it, id have expected something abit better!

Anyway. Bonnet bra. What are people opinions?

I bought one the other day for long journeys, but i'm unsure if I like the look...

Discuss.. :drinking: :popcornsoda:

I have a full mask for the autobahn to try and help look after my front end, looks sh*t on (gimp mask?) but serves a purpose

Post by: Frodo-anni on July 10, 2011, 11:01:15 am: I've had one on the mk4 anni, mainly for purpose, to protect that front end when going long distance along with the bumper covered in blue 3m tape, no other reason. :signLOL:

People seem to use them as a fasion item rather than for their purpose.
I've heard some storys of people who leave them on all the time and moisture gets trapped under there and damages the paintwork though.

Each to their own, but I am not a great fan.

Would rather use stone chip protection film.

True...

Can VentureShield be washed & waxed?
Yes, you may wash and wax your car as if VentureShield were not present. In fact, we suggest you do wax the
VentureShield protective layer just the same as the rest of the car, to ensure against uneven fading of your car's paint. (Copyright VentureShield)

Post by: v2brett on July 10, 2011, 06:28:44 pm: there very marmite these things. i used get some funny looks when i had it on mine, prob people thinking what the hell it is.

its protecting the paint work which is its purpose so i say use it for the long journeys to save the paint a bit :happy2: and take it off when your looking at the car haha

Looks good on red too mate.
