USA Front Bra for 2009 Corolla S

Just picked up my wife's 2009 Corolla S last week and were quite disappointed in the accessories that are offered. I am waiting for color keyed body side moldings that I ordered online and will have them installed.

Need to know a manufacturer of a complete front two piece Bra for the car. Le Bra doesn't have them and neither does Covercraft. Could someone provide me with a source?

I don't know about the general consensus here regarding bras and it may vary according to climate, but all the bra applications I have seen look good for the first little while and then a little dirt gets in between the bra and the car and with wind turbulence at speed etc kind of creates a sandpaper effect and it the paint gets all scratched underneath. If you leave it on you may never notice until it comes off. Just what I have observed.

I had one of those strap on black bras and will never own another one. It rubbed and put small scratches in my paint. I also had to take it off everytime I wanted to wash and wax.

On my current Corolla, I put on a 3M Ultrashield which is 8 mil thick clear paint protection film. I had atrained installer put it on a little over 2 years ago and it has held up perfectly for 40,000 miles of driving.

It was fairly expensive at $475, but that also included covering the rear bumper and mirrors.

If I ever purchase another new car, 3M Ultrashield will be applied within the first week after taking delivery.
