It's kind of a pain in the ___, but not too bad once you've done it twice or so. There is a combination of button-like snaps near the wheels, hooks that thread into the grills and inside the engine compartment, and plastic clips that hook around the perimeter of the bumper.

Way too much work putting it on and taking it off though. I have one that I only use when making road trips.

The first time I put mine on was in winter when they were rocking the roads... took an hour and half to stretch it to fit! It was freezing outside, so it didn't want to stretch easily. Now that it is summer, I can put in on and take it off in around 5 minutes. Once it's been stretched to fit, it goes on and off muuuch easier.

All the people in my car club that put on bras for road trips end up with a long "Scratch" where the top edge of the bra rubs the hood. The one guy in the xB buffed it out and stopped using his but the other guy in the tC still has his on there and it keeps getting worse....

They are both BCPs... wonder if that matters???

Mine adheres on with adhesive and you dont need to remove it or worry about scratching the paint.
