Bra/Mask Cover
Anyone run a bra or one of those NoviStretch front end covers?
We are getting ready to get hit with a double dose of cicada broods here in the SoIll. Have run bras on other vehicles before. Never just left on all the time. Lot of time to take off or put on properly. The NoviStretch mask cover looks like it would be absolutely useless for this level of protection. Thoughts? |

front cover
Was extremely hesitant to put anything on the front of the car other than wax.
So much of the cars history is represented in the front end of the 5th gen. Thanks for the reply |

I had put a bra on a previous car and regretted it. it collected debris that ended up scratching the paint worse than if I had done nothing.

They never do seem to fit quite properly do they? And then the straps rub…so, I will say, I am replacing my front end, the previous owner tweaked it and caused some odd damage. The front end is still available from GM, so if needed at least there’s that!

^^^ This. Two of my Camaro friends, one had the NOVI stretch and the other had one of the normal bra's for his camaro,the NOVI is useless and looks like crap, the other kind also makes the Camaro look like crap AND left all sorts of scratches and damage under it. My suggestion, just wax the heck out of the front, and keep it clean every day!! Carry a bottle of detail spray and some micro fiber towels with you like I do. We always have a "love bug" bloom twice a year over here and they do get kinda thick and cause all sorts of grief on the fronts of cars. But if you get them off ASAP, all is good. Good luck!!

We have a few members here in ND that use the novi stretch for highway cruises to keep the bug scrubbing to a minimum. They have no complaints, but that it all they use it for.
