I'll be at the Brooklands meeting on the 14th Oct if u want to see it.  The bra gives the front end a unique look & keeps any stones off the bonnet.

To protect from stone chips etc!

And yes, saggy bonnets :P

but any grit that gets under it will get ground into the paintwork, meaning you can never take it off to enjoy the lack of stonechips :thumbd:

other opinions are available ;D

But you only use the Bra when driving & take it off when u get home or at a car show, this way you can still enjoy a shiny bonnet.  ;D
