Man seeing the green and the curvy roads has me itching to get into my shark! Looks like a great road and a good time.

Brian, just a suggestion: Bras are great. I agree. I used to use a bra on my original 914/6 and loved not having to pick bugs off of the nose or worry about small pebbles..................until one day I got caught in some rain. I removed the bra awhile later after I stopped to rest for the night and the scratches from the dirt under the bra were too deep to buff out. I trashed that bra. Good riddance. When I paint my 928 and my 914/6, I will let the paint cure and then the next stop will be at the 3M clear bra man's place for both cars. At least that's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

I promise I won't do it when you're around...

My car, that's another story, though.

Ah, OK -- that may be the case on your fancy-pants GMRS radio(that allegedly requires an FCC license) but FRS radios do not have certain channels limited on power -- they are all 0.5W!

I did too....especially when my hood was set to far forward and the bra caused too much tension which broke the hood release!?!?! :>( But after correcting the hood....everything works fine...& I take the bra off when the car is sitting..... I actually like the red-black color scheme.....it matches the wing-bumperettes....
