Not sure if you know, the bra can actually cause more damage then with out one.

yeah I've heard that whole bit but right now the front bumper has a big *** scrape on it that looks ugly as hell so this is going to look plenty better, thanks for the link though

To help eliminate scratching you should go with a factory Honda bra set, Because the fitment is much better than aftermarket. I had a bra set on my Crx that I had back in 1996, But it takes great care to prevent damage. First you need to double wax and polish wherever the bra makes contact with the car. You can only leave the bra on for a maximum of two weeks, Rain or shine. If you leave it on any longer the water that is trapped will fog the paint and the trapped sand will start to scratch the paint. After that you need to take the bra off for one hot sunny day to bake off any extra moisture that may have been trapped. I have seen some people that have left a bra on too long and sometimes they can unfog the paint by leaving it in the hot sun for a full day, But that doesn't always work. Then before you put it back on you need to double wax and polish again. Do not put on the bra on in the winter for any reason as it will for sure ruin the paint. It is a real pain in the a$$ to keep up with to prevent damage, I did it for 3 years. Hope this helps!

the fat scratch on the front bumper is my fault so I am paying for this, my mom suggested that I just get the bra because it would be cheaper and she has wanted one for a while anyways, thanks for all the responses I will take this stuff into consideration

also i dunno if anyones said this yet, but if you cover the front with a bra, since your paint fades over time, the parts that are covered with the bra wont fade along with the rest of the paint on the car... So if you ever take it off youll notice the difference
