i would definitley consider a clear-bra if i had a new evo....rock chips bug me a lot because they can start to rust and get even worse. plus if i had one i would be more willing to go rallying on dirt and snow places.

I had a clear bra installed 2 days after picking up my MR - I recommend others do the same.

I know how you feel. I got a few chips too. Soon i'll need a paint job. Most of the chips have no idea when they got there.

Not really, but I like using it for its intended purpose more than I care about paint chips and such.

Lmao you say he should get a clear bra, and then you ask what one is..

If you look on the very bottom piece of your rear quarter pannels, by where it meets the sideskirts, you'll see a clear plastic guard covering the metal (on newer evos that is) From my understanding, that would be a clear bra
