No nose masks for Evo IX's?
I went to the local Mitsu dealer yesterday to pick up a nose mask for my IX, but according to the parts dept, Mitsu has not released one yet. Is this true?
I do not want the 3M clear bra thing. |

Why don't you want the clear-bra? Dirt and debris get's trapped underneath a nose mask and can scratch up the paint pretty bad
|
If not you could always try one of those automotive bra places that advertise in the back of car magazines. Can't think of the name off-hand
|
No part number for a IX bra; I tried finding out.
|
the VIII's will fit it just has that extra part for the mitsu symbol, but that just attaches to your mesh... just letting you know.
|
You should get a clear bra (unless you have a white car). Its a great product and Im pleased with mine. On a white car though, It tunes yellow.

You don't want to use those nose masks on your evo as dirt and sand will get under it and start rubbing against your paint every second the engine is running.

ha ha my a$$ that their qoute.. all clear bra will get Yellow by sun UV.. also wrost thing when u dont want clear bra and peel off.. it will leave a new paint and non clear bra area are fade and swirls.. i never clear bra or cover.. as long u keep waxes ur car it will less rock chips and stratches.. My car had no Rock chip for 13,000 mileage since brand new.. even i drive hard and tailgate and went gravel area |
I've had a sport hood bra on my M3 for 79k and not one scratch. As long as you wash your car and wax it once in a while you will be fine.

Get a clear bra. Forget the classic leather bra thing. The sun will fade the rest of the paint and then youll have a very distintive line going across your hood. I have a white MR with 3M's newest material and have no yellowing either. My bro has the same on his Grey car and you cant even see it.
