Any one has a nosemask?

Got hit by a soda can on the highway and left a nasty 1 inch cut on my front bumper

Im going on a road trip soon so I was thinking about getting a nosemask to avoid similar accidents. My Z's in Monaco Blue so I think the nosemask should blend in pretty well (like the soft top). Anyone has a picture of their car with a nosemask on ?

Uh....do you mean a bra?

I have the BMW nosemask (sold through dealers)...it was the only one I could find (wanted Colgan, but they do not make, I even emailed them). Anyhow, the nosemask does the job, but couple of things, you have to install little velcro strips inside each wheel well and the nosemask is a total pain to fit, but again, it does the job, at least for me. If you go for it, make sure you get the correct Model Year (there are two versions for the Z4).

They are more expensive, but have you considered a clear bra? Some folks think they are wonderful.

I have the clear bra on my other car and so far so good. I had a factory bra on my old Audi and would never buy another. The problem with them is that you need to remove and clean them every couple of weeks (as per the instructions) or dirt will collect underneath and chafe scratch your paint.
