The Braless Cat...

I've had the bra off for a couple months now. Now you can see why I chose to put a bra on it. Now it's been off so I'm kind of used to it being gone and not sure if I want to put it back.
Now looking at it compared to the pic in my sig, I like it better with the bra.:dunno:

Looking for opinions.
Should it stay or should it go?
Yeah, I know the car's dirty, weather's been py here.

Mask off and spray paint the bumper "molding" part and no one should be able to tell.  If you take the time to sand it and prime and do all the steps right, it should turn out fairly decent to hold you over until you decide to paint the whole car.

My opinion is to keep the bra off.

I'd paint your bumper cover and leave it off.  Most everyone I know who has a bra is just covering up something!  However I agree that it does not look that bad on your car.

If there is a car that a bra looks good on it's a white one, plus you don't have to worry much about fading.  I worked at a carwash in high school and everone with a bra had major fade problem.  Prob. wouldn't be a big deal if you waxed like you are supposed to but still.  They also tend to trap dirt.  Besides it's not much confort haveing a flawless front end when the rest of the car is worn normally.  Maybe if you had to drive on gravel a lot it would make sense.

Wow, split right down the middle 50-50.

I did have some fading but the car just has some py paint on it. After leaving the bra off for a while, it's now pretty much evened out.

That was the idea;)

Well I think I'm going to leave it on for now.
I'm thinking the car just needs something right now.
The bumper cover really looks better in the picture. It's soooo chipped and cracking on the top. Just can't find a color that's close enough to my white that works. This thing's like appliance white or something, I have no idea.

The car has some rust and stuff so some new doors and fenders are in line along with a TC hood that's sitting in my basp00get.
I plan on getting the car painted within the next year or so(I hope), so then the bra will be permanently removed.

Just trying to see what everyone thought.
Thanks for your input!:D

Any more comments... don't be shy, bring em on!!
