I'm looking for a Jaguar supplied nose bra for an 04 XKR that you would be willing to ship on my dime. Thanks.

 

Just a suggestion- have you considered a clear bra? The old-style leather/vinyl bras, even OEM ones, are abrasive on the paint and can do more harm than good over time. They're not really used anymore.

So far my car has picked up one single bumper chip in 15K miles. Lucky I guess and I would like to keep it that way.


I've had both types. I had a 3m film on a 928 and after a few years the edges started really showing. Upon removal I found that it protects the paint to a point but when it takes a hit from fine gravel, the paint chips just as it would without, and upon removal the paint comes off stuck to the film. I would not use it again myself.


I had a good quality standard bra on another car which I ran for 6 years. The trick is to take it off frequently and keep the surfaces clean. A lot of people tend to install one and just leave it. Yes grit will get in-between overtime and scratch the paint.
