I've yet to call Ken about the bra. I know it looks old fashion, but here on the gulf coast bugs are a way of life (and gravel trucks as well). I have a message out to Ken at carbras though, but the dealer parts man said that the GXP and the special edition won't take a bra because of the difference in grilles. He ran it through his computer with the VIN numbers. Does someone out there have a full front bra on their GXP?

Are you looking for a permanent cover, or just something to use every now and then for protection? I put on a clear, plastic film when I'm going out of town where there will be loads of crickets, and rocks at high speed. It doesn't show, works great, and peels right off.

...meant to say "no complete cover yet". Only the hood portion

I got it at Menards, but saw it at Home Depot too. It's called carpet protector. It has one sticky side, and is nice and thin. Cover what you want, when you want, and peel it off when you're done. Instant clean front end of bugs, chips, and dirt!

Check out Bug Blocker at www.diamondite.com
It is a liquid you apply like a wax, and leave it on. It is practically clear (does show a little). But it protects the front end from bugs and chips. I have used it a couple of times. Can't really say if it is effective to prevent chipping(so far we don't have any), but I find the bugs practically rinse off. I'm heading out on a family excursion next week and plan to use it. (We'll be driving several thousand miles in the VUE)
So, I'll be able to report how it works with extended hwy driving.

be very careful of the clear carpet protector stuff you mentioned...I use that all the time when painting inside my house. little pricey at $9 for 3x50' roll, but protecting against paint spills is priceless...especially on carpet.
 
however, it's some extremely strong stuff. If you had a chip in the paint, it could easily pull off a layer.
 
perhaps you've done it on the car before, but for me, I'll use blue masking tape like when I go to the track.
