2 answers, 1st my own opinion, 2nd a more serious answer.

1. Depends how stupid you want to look
2. You'd be far better trying one of the many VW specialist forums where experienced people can give examples and pictures.

By the way, care to elaborate on what this means? Sounds like one of those Viagra spam mails.

They don't necessarily scratch but if dirt gets under them they can scratch, also they can protect the paint so well that the bit that was covered is less faded, oh yeah and they look stupid.

I agree with Engineer, also, why buy something that looks stupid, to protect the looks of your car? So to stop it looking slightly worse due to a stone chip, you may it look ridiculous. Then a few months later and you find where you might or might not have acquired a stone chip, you HAVE acquired tons of scratches from the stupid bra which made it look really stupid.

Might as well just buy a stupid looking car and scratch it! (Rover 45 with bulls A frame bumper maybe?)vomit

Why would you do this? You get to drive around looking like a spastard only for the next owner (when you sell the car) to reap the benefits of no bonnet chips. You loose, they win confused

Why would you want to put one of these on your car? Every car I see with one on, I laugh.
If you're that worried about paintwork, get some of that transparent stuff you can stick on to protect it.

They were very popular whenI lived in the US (and probably still are) - I always thought they looked very ood and unattractive and didn't really see the point...

Do they serve a practical purpose?

Or are they another one of those daft VW 'scene' things, like

Tiny wheels that poke out from inside the tyres
Ridiculously lowered suspension
Rusty bonnets
Silly haircuts for the owner

As I understand it they're for parts of the US where some of the bugs in the air are big enough to leave a dent. Possibly not needed all year round.

Yeah stone chips and the like, pointless though IMO as its like not driving because your tires get worn. People tastes are different though so each to there own.

Good list, but you've missed out removing the rear wiper

Or appending the word "dub" to everything as an indicator that it is good?

I saw a bonnet bra on a Ford Ka the other day.
