If you are traveling on freeway or through dirt roads, i recommend buying a colgan bra on the stop, and drive to a clear bra shop. The only thing i regret not doing when i bought my car.

+1 for clear bra.
they might be little costly for full set up, but don't wait untill you have rock chips and have to get them repainted.

thanks so much everyone!! just got a call from the dealer and they asked me if I can come in 2 hours later... so the wait continues lol. I was just thinking that I will be parking it at the end of every parking lot, away from everyone hahaha.

anyone care to explain what this bra thing is? how much is it, where do i get it, and why do i need it? lol I'm clueless

Congrats and welcome to CL! I remember when I first picked up my IS thinking I'd just leave it stock. $10k in mods later... that's what CL will do to you.

Are you talking about the clear bra overlay? If so, it's just to protect your car from rock chips and damage to the paint. Usually DailyDrivers get this if you do a lot of freeway driving. Make sure you have someone professional install if you do get it.

Check out this recent thread and discuss where or which bra you should get. Don't get the cloth bras, they are UGLY for a classy sport car

ditto on that... I bought my is250 2 weeks ago and immediately installed a clear bra a week later. It'll save you a lot of heart ache... especially when u have a darker paint when the rock chips become more noticeable.

That's why I went for silver one.

I got my clearbra on ebay for about 34 bucks (hood, fender, bumper and mirror). The 3M cost more but I believe it's more durable.

I finished installing hood and fenders, but plan to install bumper next week.



Congrats on your car!
