Why not go with some kind of clear bra, i didnt even know vinyl bras were still a thing. What people don't realize is that those vinyl bras are the worst, they do nothing but collect debris and they can make your paint worse. You spend all the money to buy such a great car and go cheap on paint protection.

I have never understood riding around with the front of the car covered in a big piece of vinyl. So dumb and ugly. If you want to protect the front, wrap it in Xpel or something like that.

Good god...I didn't even notice that. Just when you think it can't get any worse. His car should be taken away from him and given to a proper owner, then he should be gifted a v6 mustang.

That is a Speed Lingerie Front End Mask and Mirror covers I believe. Whether it looks good or not, it does protect the paint a lot better that clear bra film. It may not look as nice, but it protects the car better. If he puts race tape underneath that bra where it rubs on the paint, his paint will be nearly flawless and protected. I had these bras in the past and they worked very well.

That being said, the look is not for everyone (And I do not have any idea if this car is driven).

The bra is good for driving from point A to point B for protection but when you get to a show for example you're suppose to remove it. Clear bra's is the way to go however with clear bras you can fix the paint, buff it, etc. With the added on bra you can access the paint.

People that criticize other people Are just unhappy about something in
their lives and they take the most pathetic measures to make
Themselves feel better.

Why spend that much money on that car to cover it it Pep Boys accessories.

Its owners like this.. that kept me from giving the Corvette brand a chance for so many years. You dont dont see the "mods" like this happening to Porsche, Ferrari, Lambo, etc. While the choice of chrome wheels is questionable.. the red leather bra is completely over the line. Where do you even buy a leather bra at these days? And the leather mirror covers have to either be A) home made or B) from a set of golf clubs. Dont even get me started on the pin-striping. Maybe the owner thought this was 1976.. instead of 2016. Thank goodness he but the huge CORVETTE vinyl sticker on top of the windshield, because whoever would have thought it was Corvette without such a Goodyear Blimp sized sign on it.
