Default Side Mirror Bra.....

I tried searching already and couldnt pull anything up about the side mirror bra's. I was just looking at some pics on a thread recently and saw this car with them and I am interested in them since Florida bugs are killers for paint especially for Love-Bug seasons.

Here is the pic of it

Why don't you use 3M Stoneguard instead.

I have that, but it doesn't cover the whole mirror.

BlackR has some on his ITR.

Looks good and keeps rock chips/tire worm marks off of the paint.

3M makes a film that is transparent that is installed on cars to protect against paint chips, I had done some research on it and found some leads but, I do not have that information with me right now. This film is used on Mercedes, or at least use to. it protects really well from chips. I will try to find what information and post it.
Just another option, in case someone wants protection but do not like the bras...

.....you can get them from carparts.com. Work very well and save paint + save time scrubbing bug guts off your mirrors.

I catch flack all the time from everybody though.

I can understand if you're going cross country...

but around town, any kind of bra looks gay.

Hey, I guess you're referring to the mirror bras I have on my car (the link to the pic above is http://photos.yahoo.com/bc/itrfever/...c=ph%26.view=t I don't know why Yahoo! Photos doesn't let us link directly to the pic). I got them from Autoseattle.com. You can goto their bra section and click on mirror bras. They come custom made for the car and I paid around 30 bucks for them. I usually throw on the front nose + mirror bras when I go on the track. There are some pretty decent size tire chucks that get thrown up! The florida bug problem must be pretty bad to warrant some mirror bras! Hope that helps!
