I think it is to trap moisture and enable rust to set in at an early age. But I could be wrong.

Yeah, I'd have to agree with the above comments. A bra can look nice but if you leave it on all the time, you will get an uneven paint fade and other problems to boot. Definitly nice gesture though.

Yea I know. Forgot that I posted this. The directions say to take off and let dry when it gets wet. It is off now. I think we will put it on when we go on long trips up north. maybe keep the stone chips and bugs off from the freeway.

That, I'm sure it will do well. I would just recommend not going off-roading with it on.

I put a Bra on my 93 ford probe. I was young and stupid. I figured it would help with the PA winters and chipping. I would take it off in the summer. Well ... The next summer it had rubbed a good bit of paint off. :sad:
