Those clear bra's that they stick on look good. Not sure what the kit costs. H

I bought the full bra for my '06 and took it off less than six months later. Pain to deal with when washing, dirt and sand would always get stuck underneath and grind at the paint, and long-term, you'll have uneven fading of the paint (think farmer's tan). I'll send it to you if you want, but you'll probably have to buy some plastic snaps, I'm pretty sure I lost all of the ones that go into the wheel well.

Clear bra is okay.

The other bra will ruin your nose.

P.S. Read the fine print; the instructions state you have to take it off to dry every time it rains and when you wash your car.

Welcome to GreenHytbrid, David!

What noflash and mrmnhrm said.
Plus, even tied down properly, it'll flex a little (especially at high speeds), allowing dirt to get under it. Now dirt is between the bra and the surface you are trying to protect. Not a good combination.
I used one for a short time. Never again. It's bra-less or the clear plastic 3M type for me!

Well, like I said, if you haven't bought it already, you're welcome to have mine. Some assembly required ;)
