sl550 bras, 07 SL550 w/AMG sprt
Hi folks, been on the road killing bugs and dodging stones (all but 1), Is there a bra available for my car that fits right, either leather or vinyl or whatever, for the new SL (07) with AMG sport pkg front face, I doubt the base model 07 bra would be satisfactory; Im locating ONLY earlier SL bras 06 and before, that wont do.
Thank goodness I blue-taped it, but it doesnt stand up so well on long trips.
Oh yeah, the stinkin rock chip, has anyone come up with a better solution than touch-up paint? Its a very shallow tiny chip.
Cant believe all the sticky black sh*t im picking up out there, specially on drivers side behind the front wheel, stuborn stuff. Maybe I should have blue-taped the whole car!
Please, if any one can advise about a good bra, specially one that can lift off easily and be reused like the black ones you see everywhere, Im not sure you can reuse the clear bras- isn't that just that thin hi-tech clear stuff the shops install themselves? Ive seen it advertised in Brit mags like EVO, but it doesnt appear to lift off and then re-install, perhaps there are 2 kinds of clear bras-- help me out,ok ppl.
