I don't think a bra looks that bad, and my forward cameras work just fine. Speed Lingerie is a little pricey but its less than Xpel.

That's not that bad. Where did you purchase?

I think this thread sold me on the Novistretch. I already have PPF and ceramic on the car, but the front end of a the ZR1 is an awful lot of inlets to heat exchangers. And those things will catch an awful lot of bugs and leaves. Cleaning them out of there is a hassle. So I’m thinking I put this bug catcher on for long trips and leave it off for the quick stuff.

These do look great - but the only downfall of these is that if they get wet, they have to be removed to dry out. With the NoviStretch the mesh dries out without having to removing it. The good thing about these bras is that they are thicker than a NoviStretch so they offer additional protection. Like ALL products - you have PROS & CONS.

Look at my nose after two years of driving ONLY using the NoviStretch...(the same area pictured above with the paint chips). Id say it does a great job against small stones...for the larger debris only the thicker / leather type bras will work.

No wear, rubs or scratches on the paint and the underside of the bra still soft! I was very pleased and glad that I spent the extra $$ for this bra. Did I mention that they have holes over the camera that are manufactured in.
