Re: SVX Front bra

Thanks for the photos; just what I had in mind.

So, which one of you want to sell your SVX bra?

Know where I can find one?

Re: SVX Front bra

I also have a front bra - complete with bottom section to protect the bumper paint & front wing tips - not for sale.

check out - (cannot find the photo of my 1995 red with bra on) - think it was in old format forum.

Sorry will see when I get home tonight.

regards

Stephen in NZ

If your thinking of putting one on, you might want to think twice, I have seen a number of cars that have had the paint under the bra get ruined because of the moisture and dirt that gets trapped under them.

my car had one on (the hood type not the whole front type) and it isn't scratched up...it all depends on the owner. YMMV

Re: SVX Front bra

I have had them on 2 cars so far and nnever had a scratch problem. Of course I take mine off at least once a month for a wash.

Right now I am noticing alot of road rock damage on my SVX. I think since the front end is low profile it gets more rock abuse than my Legacy GT. IMO.

Re: SVX Front bra

Subaruparts still has them for sale in their accessories section


The front end cover (hood) is part number M0010PS110 and goes for $41.24





The front end cover (full) is part number M0010PS100 and goes for $94.90






The only thing no longer available is the car cover. It shows a price of $0.00, has a red X next to it and says "Obsolete - Do Not Order"

My brother in law had one on his RX7, ruined the paint.

My brother in law had one on his RX7 for 4 years, and it ruined the paint. We ended up painting the whole front third.

Another friend put one on just for the drive to the vintage races, on a Porsche 928....unknown to us one of the front clips that hold it on came loose and beat the alloy wheel to death...cost him $160 to have it repaired.

Another on a 300zx quit using his because of it starting to remove the clear at the tight spots it had. He would only use it when he was on trips.

I have two for the 300zx I have ....never have used them. They will be for sale this spring.

Re: SVX Front bra

Just bought one from Subeman90. I think this is the quickest online transaction ever!

Thanks everyone.

Cool Re: SVX Front bra

Yes that is what happened to mine - only had it on the car for 1 week - when I took it off - it had rubbed the leading edge of the bonnet down to the undercoat - cost me $200 to fix.

Now I only use the bra while at shows......you have been warned.
