Corvettes and the long haul driving . . . Bra ?

Drifting
I have the Colagan bra, Novi and XPEL for various cars.
The Colgan is the one I use for cross country driving to national meets and it is by far the best money can buy for protection.
The Novi is for local driving and mostly in the spring for bugs.
The XPEL I put on my truck for daily use. It has held well but it does have an end life. You also need to put conditioner on it.
It is not cheap and many have the install expense.
We had it at work and I was able to install myself. It has worked well but I am not sure if I will use it again. I do still use it on exposed head lamps to prevent pitting. My trucks is a Denali so the nose is mostly grille and it does nothing to protect it.
The one to avoid is the Le Bra. There is no inner protection and they are prone to damage paint.
Also never leave any bra on long term. Most that are on all the time have damaged paint they are hiding. The bras will damage paint by rubbing. Always make sure it is tight. Older bras will stretch with time and not fit tight replace them. Never mess with a used one.

I agree for daily driving Xpel is the way to go -- I have it on all my cars, I even have it on my kids' cars. IT's great stuff, they just tend to over exaggerate some of its healing properties.
I hear you on the bra, they do suck, but for long hauls, I feel they're a necessary evil.

Just a tip if you remove it and ever want to put it back on leave it out in the sun and let it get warm. It will go back on like butter.
