    check to make sure its pushed nice and tight up against the edge of your hood, if you still have extra than go ahead and chop it off

    lol.. installation is pretty easy, you could put it on the ironman then take it off in a month and put it on the proton

    just a warning to everyone getting them in the mail..

    make sure you do not try to unroll the bra while its cold, the material WILL crack!

    met up with spike yesterday, we installed a white bra on his ironman.. the white doesnt match, its much whiter than the victory white paint, at first i thought it almost made the victory white paint look yellowed at first.. after a little bit, it started growing on me, and after an hour or so, i didnt even notice the bra on it.... but it gets dirty really easily

    be careful

    Thosse of you interested in these, be careful - DON'T leave them on all the time. Eventually very fine dirt works it's way under magnetic signs, and rubs at your paint. This is not good - I'm speakinig from experience.

    Uh oh. Are they easy enough to remove and reinstall each time I wash the truck (about every 1-2 weeks for me)?

    jody pm'd me yesterday and informed me that dirt found its way under the magnetic bra on her vx and that the dirt had rubbed on the paint i just went out and took my bra off to see how it looked underneath (LOL) you could see the pattern of the magnet on the hood very faintly from certain angles, just using some spray on detailer and a soft cloth it came right off...

    moral of the story, when you install the bra, make sure its warm enough out that you get a near perfect fit, dont want any air bubbles, make sure you clean the you know what out of your hood and bra before putting it on and its not very difficult to take off and reinstall, so for some extra insurance make sure to take the bra off every so often and wash underneath it, bob recommends every month, i will probably clean under mine every 2-3 weeks because i park under a tree that drops all kinds of crap on my vx

    yes the bra is easy to take off and put back on (although i have no idea why someone would put a bra on after taking it off ) once the bra has been installed once, it kind of forms to the hood, so its very easy to get it lined up again
