Going to Miami need a bra

I need to protect my car as much as possible from rock chips, bugs, etc. Can anyone recommend a good bra or whatever to keep the car as safe as possible on a 1500 mile road trip?

I heard the clear bras are really expensive. I just want something to put on for a day since it will be my only long road trip with the E.

Funny you should ask. I needed on for a recent trip to Palm Beach and Miami. After some research, I ordered a Colgan 2-piece. I also ordered the optional side mirror protectors.

Since these are all custom made, you need to allow a few weeks for delivery (although they had some sort of fee for express fabrication). Good luck and be safe on I-95!

I would be very careful with a Colgan bra. I had one a year and a half ago and it fluttered over the depression where the inner lights are. I was very concerned that the flutter would abraid the paint. I sent the bra back, Colgan made some changes and sent it back to me. It was better but still fluttered at 70 mph. I had some conversations with them about putting a stay or one of their triangular braces over that area but they wouldn't do it so I sent it back for a full refund.
