Default Front end mask?

My paint is coming off the nose and it'll have to wait until this fall before It goes to the paint shop. I'm wanting to cover it with a nose mask. Anybody have any suggestions on what brand works good. Most I look at don't seem very appealing in the pictures so I figured they'll look worse on my car.

I bought one (installed for 6 months) and then decide the paint chips were the least of 2 evils.

They do work but so does a Braseirre on a woman. Which way would you rather see a woman with or without her bra??? Same for the Corvette I think.

Point taken... Then again, it depends on how it looks without.

Just like on most clothing optional beaches, those women who should be covered, aren't.....

Dirt can get under the bra-you can get fading if you keep it on for an extended time in the summer months.

I MUST repaint this fall. I'll be replacing the nose with a new one so it doesn't matter to me. Just want to cover up the uglyness.
