How to Buy a Car Bra

A car bra, sometimes called a front-end mask, is an accessory that can help protect the paint on the front of your car from things like bugs, flying rocks and other debris. Car bras help preserve the resale value of a car by keeping the paint looking new. It is also a way to add a custom look to any car without having to make permanent changes to the exterior.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. Choose the base color of the car bra you want to install on the front of your car. You have to consider your exterior paint color and interior color scheme.

2. Pick the grade of car bra you want for your car. Manufacturers measure the thickness and durability of the material to determine the grade. The wording concerning the grade varies from manufacturer to manufacturer.

3. Search for a car bra designed specifically for your car. You have to check to make sure that the car bra will fit your car's year, make and model. This will ensure a proper fit and will allow any special features on your car's front end, such as pop up lights, to work properly.

4. Check the lining of the car bra. Most car bras have a paint safe lining, which is important because it protects your paint from being damaged by the car bra. Only buy a car bra if it has a paint safe lining.

5. Decide on any customization you want on your car bra. Some car bras allow you to have custom designs or wording printed or painted on the front.
