You know... I never even thought about the bug splats. We've got Lovebugs here in full force and this would've helped out.

I bought mine used with chips in it but I still put a clear bra on. Yes you can see the paint chips (I touched them up but the bra pulled some of the touch up off as it cured) but at least I won't be adding any new paint chips to the front.

If you put a clear bra on especially if not done right after buying a new one, make sure the areas being covered are as pristine as you can get them as the bra will magnify any imperfections.

Clear bra is the only way to go, to stop the bumper from looking like garbage. Coat of wax won't take away the chips once they are there.

I know this is an old post but I just came across it. I have the clear bra on my car, who evert had it before me had it installed. I didn't even realize it was on there at first, it's really subtle. And so far it seems to do a great job of protecting the car, there's no scratches or chips on it at all. It feels like a thin layer of rubber almost, so its like it absorbs the impact and diffused it. I didn't know about clear bras before, but I will definitely be getting it again. Worth every penny.
