I have this bra that I got with the car when I bought it. I won't be using it so I wonder what is it worth? It's for US cars also, and mine is a Euro.

Condition is like new, looks like it's never been used before. Here a photo of it on my car, for testing purposes.

An OE one, $75-100, not sure about one that isnt compatible with the headlights.

I would not use one - dirt gets behind it and grinds the paint. It'll sell though, people are always looking for them.

That's one of those rare open nipple bras!

Ok - so this is not original equipment?
What do you mean by not compatible with the headlights? I see no incompatability.

The trouble with American bras is one yank and they're off!

I have one that looks different. Will post a pic later. I like the headlight covers yours has but I don't recall mine having it. It did not say PORSCHE on it in white letters. Don't know if mine is factory.

As much as I hate to disagree with Linderpat, my experience with car bras is that if you are even half-smart about not letting crap accumulate under them and making sure there is a good coat of wax on the paint, the likelihood that you will damage the paint is pretty small.

The key is to take them off if they get wet.

I ran bra's on all my cars in the 90's (including my 944) and never had paint issues. It's the folks who put them on and don't take them off for 10 years that have issues. I've actually seen mold infestation under a car bra.

I prefer the clear bra wrap to the old school method.

I'm pretty sure Bertrand uses a bra on his Cobalt Blue 91 when he travels to Frenzy. He has NO paint issues.

Same here, I use it for long trips so I don’t get paint damage, been using it for 9 years with no problem. Like Otto said, take it off after your trip is over!

Depends what the use case is.

Two keep on a car for weeks, no.

For a drive thru the desert...sure.

It's a great tactical barrier when one is absolutely needed.

its also a layer you can add, use self-healing Xpel, and you can heat gun any abrasion away.

I tested that on purpose on my 2wk 5000 drive last summer, had a hella hazy bra line.

Left the car in the sun for a day, 75% gone, heat gun and 5min later, totally gone.

And, the 1/2 inch of bugs I got driving from Devils Tower to Idaho Falls via Yosemite at night...OMG..I cant even..thank you bra.

It was so bad, I had to pull over to scrape the most disgusting crap off my headlights, I have ever seen....it was blocking 80% of the light after some time before I realized it wasnt me getting tired.

Speedtoys

That you have to roll a flap FORWARD tells me its not compatible.

You have to prepare to turn on the lights...and the roll can come untied..yikes.

I mean..it works..but it's not well thought out.
