I have the bra and mirror covers from my 93 GTS that I only used once. It is a Colgen bra I bought from 928 Specialists.

There is a thread on here about someone making a custom 3M clear kit--in the last 10 days or so. I will search shortly.

I just left the shop, they had only planned to do a 12" strip on the hood. I said, what good is that I want to protect the whole nose (as I told them when I booked).

I had a long talk with the installer, he said there would be a few seems around the headlight? Not sure if I like that.

Long story short they are going to call me with a proper quote and I will go from there.

Looks like $500-$700 to do the complete nose.

Clear bras are still the safest, most modern/aesthetically pleasing ways to protect your nose. I've seen Enzo's, SV's, etc all clear-bra'd: it's the expected way to protect your exotic.

Yes, wax them with the rest of the car.

All I ask is for shipping, and to pay it forward if it works for you.

The truth is, I would consider a clear bra if I got the nose repainted first. But currently it is like 10-year-old paint that has never been protected, it is full of tiny chips below the fog lamps. There are no large chips, and the hood is pretty good still. I don't want it to get worse, especially not the hood, and I like driving to Canada and back every summer. So the big black lingerie is a good option for me, I don't wear it for my DD commuting activities during the academic year. -- yes I work at a university, 9 months per year. It's a lifestyle.
