Default Custom Color Bra/Mask ?

I could be making this up -- but is there some type of bra/mask made for the Scion that comes in colors other than black? Like, the color of the Scion itself?

The black bra/mask just looks kinda ugly to me over the flint mica. I've seen "transparent" adhesives but those look tacky.

You're never going to be able to match a bra to the color of a Scion. You're looking at two different materials, one of which cannot be painted.

I can't think of the term, but you can get a clear "sticker" put over your front end that you won't even notice.

I have the full clear bra that covers the entire hood, bumper, side mirrors and along the door edges. It was a great investment and you can't tell it's on the car unless you are looking for it. IMO it is the cleanest way to protect the front.

I've also heard of colored vinyl bras you can get. I don't recall from where, but it was in the back section of some car magazine where the ads are.

Yeah, but it may be a few days. We don't get much sun over here in Oregon.

Good to know. I'll take pics as soon as the sun comes out and I wash my car. But you can take my word for it that it barely is noticeable. So far nobody has mentioned it unless I told them about it first. And I've had it since the day I bought my car.
