If you're getting the bra just to cover up the rock chips for aesthetic reasons, it sounds like you'd be leaving the bra on all the time. I definitely wouldn't recommend that; I made the mistake of doing that on a Mazda I had in the early 90s and it totally crapped up the hood.

You can remove it, but why would you want to??!! Once its on there its on, but just in case, if you get it installed at an authorized location, you receieve a five year warranty.

Sorry I took so long but here are the pictures of my car with the bra on. These were taken right after I installed it so some parts are still wrinkled since it wasn't fully stretched out yet.

Before:



After:



Since I was already at it here are some more!

18 bucks? Thats pretty cheap. This might be a good thing to buy to use for long trips. I wonder what it looks like on a OB.

Your welcome. To be honest with you I didn't like it at first either. But it's slowly growing on me. The main reason I put it on was because I do a lot of freeway driving so it was necessary since I can't afford the clear bra at this point. My bumper was starting to get chipped so before it got worse I put it on. It sort of reminds me of the Nissan GT-R so maybe thats why it's growing on me! Oh and just so you know this is the OEM bra from Infiniti. If you go with that other one you'll probably end up getting what you paid for so be careful.

i have a black coupe and i was also thinking of getting a bra to cover up the bumper chips.

That $18 cover is damn cheap. I wonder how it compares to the OEM one which is much more expensive. I'm not a big fan of the bra either, but i figured it can't look too back on a black car. I am worried though of all the scratches it might put on on the car.
