Title: VW Sharan car bra
Post by: Vitor on January 08, 2017, 01:39:42 PM
Just fitted a "car bra" on my VW Sharan bonnet, and it actually looks really good! Just left it to settle for a bit, the leather needs to stretch a little before it's 100%

ive been doing a lot of research on this very thing for my vw t5,it seems that there is very mixed opinions on the fitting of 1.

practical aspects of it is to make a pitted bonnet look good or 1 thats in good condition staying that way.

against is apprantley they make the bonnet sweat thus causing condensation which in turn makes the bonnet rust and corrode?

i too would like to hear other opinions because im also tempted.

My bonnet is already all pitted and with a big dent on it, so this is to disguise it, BUT also, to prevent further damage to it

About the condensation, I have no idea yet...
