Get This Thing Off My Car!

My car came with one of the clear bra's that runs all over my front end and about 1/4 up my hood. It doesn't look clean at all and it will eventually turn yellow like all others. HOW DO I GET IT OFF?

Who makes yours? I would really recommend leaving it on the car, mine has saved my paint from being destroyed.

I've never heard of someone actually wanting to take one off. I got one put on my MR the first week I had it so as to protect the front end from paint chips. It's also extremely easy to clean. Clear bras are becoming a selling point on used cars now, too.

Why doesn't yours look clean (can you just clean it?) and why will it turn yellow?

Don't take it off. Your mitsubishi paint job will thank you after 5k miles.

Oh and the new clear bra tech doesn't yellow. Maybe after 5-10 years, but it stays clear. Wax it like paint. It's definitely a must have for all my cars.
