help me decide

my front bumper has a nice crease in it about 2 inches left of where the license plate holes are. Its about a 2 vertical rip in the bumper. I have a bra as well though. Would you rather stare at an ugly black bra or a rip in the bumper????? Let me know what yall think

While I am not a huge fan of Car Bras, It will probably look alot better than the rip.

get bumper repaired?
a bra will just screw the rest of the paint up, unless you take it off every time you wash it and when it rains.

I'd go with the bra...I personally like the way they look on the SVX.

I've changed...

I used to think that bras were bad.... until this winter with about 40 chips right where a bra would have stopped them....

I think one of my bumpers would look good on there, but hey I'm a little biased :P

I've got a big crease in mine, same spot as yours, maybe four inches deep. It came with the car, I am a more careful driver than that.

Until the bumper starts to seriously droop, it's getting no bra. I hate them.

I'd get that 350 dollar custom bumper that one dude sells.



I hope I can afford it in about a month.

I would much rather look at a bra on my SVX than a rip in the bumper.

take a look at the hood of my svx (i know that phil has seen it) and tell me that temporarily covering up the problem, only to end up w/ your hood looking like this and your bumper still being damaged would be good
