Will the H2 SUV bra fit on the SUT?

We still have it in the garage. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_redface.gif

You're egging us all on since your a girl aren't you?

I do have a serious question, did the bra every cause any paint quality issues on the old SUV? Just curious.

That's what I think VT.http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif


We didn't have it on all the time. But I would assume that if you left it on there would be an eventual color difference and moisture problems. There was concern about some clips damaging the paint blowing in the wind while driving though.

I am very disappointed. You built up my hopes just to tear them down. Off to therapy...

There's no pictures of what this full bra on the H2 looks like? Does it cover the entire hood? I don't car about the bumper.

THANK YOU!http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gifhttp://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

I'm off to market to purchase a full bra. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Now I just need to get my truck back from the dealership so I have something to put the bra on. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif

Next question. How easy or hard is the bra to install and remove? Is it something that once on because of the trouble involved you just leave it on or is it pretty easy to remove?

Thanks again for the picture.

Remove often! No not that one, the one on the truck. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif Otherwise moisture and friction can cause real problems. Ruined the paint on a 300zx I had.

It takes maybe 10 minutes to put on or take off once you get the hang of where all the hooks go.

It will puff up on the highway right behind the headlights since you can't get a hook in that area. If you get mud in that area it will definitely marr the paint. I put a strip of shields tape along the leading edge of the hood, right where it meets the grill before the bra goes on. Works good.

It says not to wash it but mine had been through the washing machine a bunch of times now and its fine. I wash it twice in a row to make sure all the grit is out, then air dry it.

Yeah, I've washed it too. Came out fine.

I bet no bra for you. Not with the new grill guard.

Yeah, that would be difficult.

I had one on my Fiero and it gave it a severe tan line. It really is death on fiberglass panels.

No bra for this rig. I think it's headed back to Connecticut. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif

I also think our winch cable and rollers are headed to Mississippi. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif

What exactly is the point of a bra? I could possibly see having one in CO where there is a ton of sand/rocks on the highways that always kick up in your face. But why would one need a bra in the South?

I only used the bra when wheeling. East Coasters know what I'm talking about when it comes to jeep sized trails being driven in a HUMMER.

This was a highway sized trail (NJH2 and Spike):

Ken, I understand the bra you purchased is heading back. Why? just personal preference? Is it too much work to worry about putting on? Will it not work or fit with the brush gurad you purchased? I know you don't have the brush guard yet but does it or will it tilt forward or is it not moveable once mounted?
