I think it looks alright....but....it does seem a little out of place a little without any other effects on it....ie...spoiler. If you know what I mean.

 

Definitely without - your car is beautiful, it's wierd to have the smooth edges distrupted by an out of place bug shield.

 

That is one badass bug shield... But agree - would probably look better without

 

Definately without. Not a fan of bug sheilds, and bras tend to do more damage than they prevent in my experience.

 

You're right, bras do, but not shields, completely different. Isn't it something about the leather heating up and cocking up the paint under it? Either way, this shield is lifted off of the hood (if I see correctly). It is a really nice looking shield, but as I said before, it just breaks up the sexy curves lol.

 

Looks good in some way but it looks weird in some way too.. take it off..

 

wash the bugs off everyday.

 

Your right Yosh, I didn't mean to make it sound like bug shields do damage. I meant only that most bras do. The problems I have had with them is the points where they are attached seem to rub over time and will wear through the paint. I have also seen them collect enough stuff under them even though you wash the car frequently that they do damage by trapping small grits of sand and other debris causing it to scratch and mar the paint.

 

Ya Nero, either way, bra or cover, they're not good for your car if you wash your car every now and then.
