Car bra

[njflex]

Gold emblems...

Those were the "ultimate" in luxury for a couple years.

Did some high end maker do this then it was immediately ripped off by Toyota and some budget imports? That fad died fast.

YEAH get your Avalon gold package..

Didn't Lee Priest have a superman bra on the front of one of his cars? At 4'11, he really thought he was Superman.  lol.

He also had something close to this in his car.

[MAXX]

yeah never understood them either.

Car entusiasts still use them today though saw one a few months ago on a car cruise

There was a time in the late 1980s when almost everyone had a bra on their car. Remember?  Most of them were made of leather (or imitation leather) and they were put on virtually every model of car you can imagine: Corvette, Camero, Trans Am, Accord, Carolla, Escort, Celica, etc.  After a time, vendors started to offer them in clear plastic and other weird materials, designs, etc.  Ostensibly the purpose of the bra was to protect your car’s front finish against nicks and cuts from road debris, but looking back it seems like nothing more than a mindless gimmick/trend concocted to separate you from your $$.  One almost never sees them anymore.  I realized that this morning when I saw one… on the highway and it was such an anachronism.  Did you ever have a bra on your car?  Did your friends?  What were you thinking?

lame as fuck.
if you NEED protection buy this shit.

Lol, yes!  Those stupid things.  Friend of mine from HS put one on his piece of shit RX7.  I swear he waxed that thing every day, yet the clutch was so badly in need of adjustment or replacement it would barely get down the road smelling like an asbestos bbq.  Any gas more than idle was lost to slip and he drove it like that for more than a year, sports bra & all.

What about the crown dash air freshners that were so popular among the Hebrew people

[LurkerNoMore]

The worst was these Hebrews that took mail box stickers to spell out crappy slogans or street cred mantras on their hooptie vehicles. 

I mean, what's up?  Your ass too broke that you couldn't spring for one of those front sun visor strips that went across the top of your windshield and was customized with whatever shitty saying you wanted to announce to the world?

The only thing like that I have seen recently was some one in a Mustang Cobra that had STEEDA across the top.

There's a horrendous trend where I am among the Maori peoples to sticker up their rear windscreens.  The prevailing sentiment, in some variety of West Coast Chopper font, is: Justify Your Existence.

Justify.  Your existence.

Also spotted occasionally swinging from the underside back end of pickup trucks are scrotae.  Balls.  Of stainless steel.  Also available in blue polyethylene.  I swear I am not making this up.

Pin striping is the worst.  They first try to get you to pay extra for the pin striping when you buy the car and when you refuse they throw it in for free. Every new car I buy I tell them I won't buy it unless they take it off. They always take off the "I got ripped off" ugly pin striping.

Of course I had a car bra!  Actually it came with it when I bought my 87 mr2. That was a badass car. I took it off early on though because water sat between the bra and the hood and I always thought that couldn't be good for the paint.

And yes I also had "the club"

And yes I currently have a 3m clear bra on one of cars. That thing works great and u can't see it on there.

[ProudVirgin69]

If you dont think this is cool:

getbig might not be the right message board for you. 

[FitnessFrenzy]

Bay, why would a man of your academic background be interested in something as mundane as car bras?

MR2 was was a cool car back in the day.  Not much room, but it had a sexy look.  One of my teachers in high school had one and we all looked at it with envy.

when I moved back home east from SF I gifted my bro in law the MR2. He let it sit in his driveway for years then gave it back. Killed me to see it neglected. Didn't have a blemish on it now it needs restored but cool to have it back. In storage. The pic u posted is a 3rd gen version an MR2 Spyder. I have one of those too.

Oh and who can forget the alpine tape decks of the 80s with the lighted green buttons. A must have. Had that too. In fact it's stil in the old MR2

How about the ones with the faceplate that popped off.   I remember guys carrying it with them into the club in their shirt pockets or even worse in fanny packs.

This is what the Nissan Pulsar NX would have looked like if it were a convertible.
