The 3m clear bra definitely protected the bumper, just not the paint underneath it. I had it repainted before I put the clear bra on so its funny to me that looking at the paint chip off I can see the original DG paint of the bumper show up.

that sucks ian.

i had a clear bra on my 35. after 3.5 years, it wasnt in the best condition. sucks paying double to replace it and repaint so id rather just repaint my bumper every year or so.

the spare tire from the bottom of a truck in front of me fell (cable broke). it hit the ground then bounced in the air. i swerved and i was lucky enough that the wheel hit with the tire and not the rim.. ive got tire rash and scratches on the drivers side windshield pillar and part of the windshield... the guy in the truck didnt know what happened till i pulled up next to him down the road

Sorry to hear that Max. Is that guy or his insurance going to pay for the damages to your car? Did it dent the windshield pillar on your car?

Damn Max. You are not having the best of luck lately. Will his insurance cover the damages? That's crazy how it bounced and hit your A Pillar I take it? I was driving on I-4 one time in rush hour traffic, and a Semi's tire blew right in front of me. Nearly s**t my pants!

And then there was the road kill incident on the way to Tampa a couple months ago...
