after it gets wet/dirty
In 2010 the Clean Air Act kicked in which meant all cars after that are now getting water based paint... which scratches VERY easily. Not to mention a stretch bra will only cover the nose. What about the hood, lights, mirrors, rocker panels... those areas take a lot of abuse as well.

It looks easy to use.
Bought Road Warrior a couple of years ago. Luckily, I tested it on a small part of the car and, after a long trip, tried to remove it. WHAT A PITA!! I've still got almost a full bottle that hasn't been touched.

You could just go with a clear bra. The current 3M film is pretty much invisible if the installer is good. I'm really happy with it and I went in expecting not to be thrilled since clear bras are usually noticeable to me.
