I dont see the point of fitting something to your car that makes it look a pile of poo to stop a few stone chips  Paintshield is a better option surely  |

Oddly I have noticed a ton of these on VAG products recently... as to for the 500 I doubt it, Italians wouldn't consider it fashionable  I don't consider it fashioable. I'd rather have the world's largest stone chip on the bonnet than drive around with something that looks like a bin bag stuck to my front end. |

an appropriate term - bonnet bra. Fit one of those and you'll look a complete t1t.

I used to hate them but sort of grown to them. They do look crap on some cars. Would be a good thing to have when going on Motorway journeys

I'd say you're more likely to pick up a stone chip on am rural A or B road than a motorway  |

I'm not sure about these. They just make a car that looks great look plain nasty and cheap for the benefit of the next owner not you.

My biggest annoyance on country roads is bugs.....bra would be good to keep them from car front. But i would have to have a paper bag for my head too |
