My van needs a Manzier!

Where is the best place to get a bug bra for my SMB? The hood is taking a beating. Has any one had problems with the paint rubbing under the bra? Thanks

yes, they probably do more damage than not having one cause stuff if always getting caught under there. But I like the way it looks on my rig.

It's not a Manzier, it's a Bro.

I took off the "bra" that came on my used van I just purchased. The van is a 2006 and had minor scratches on the hood from the bra, but in general the paint under is in good condition. I might be willing to sell if you are interested.

Re: My van needs a Manzier!

Just took mine off to see what it looks like underneath. Notbad at all. I took a clay bar to it and got all the particles out of the paint then waxed the heck out of it and it looks perfect now in every light and angle. I think if you take care of it there will be no problems. I am planning on putting mine back on. Mine is an 06 with 25k miles and has had bra from build. In my case it saved the hood!
