Does anybody know if car bras are available for 206CC's ? I'm thinking of doing a trip up the coast to Byron and as the car is but 3 weeks old, I'd hate for it to get any stone chips.

Matt - did you get many stone chips on your way up from Melbourne ???

You mean those ugly "black leather bras" :yuck:
What about Foliatec's Paint Protection Film, it's transparent. Take a look at Foliatec's web-pages http://foliatec.de/index.shtml (online catalogue/exterior/Paint-protection film).

I got a few stone chips on my trip to/from Melbourne back in August. I avoided having any traffic in front of me as much as possible, but I guess you can never avoid on-coming traffic! :cry: :cry:

Didn't get any stone chips that I have noticed (yet - touch wood). If I did, they weren't too major.

Hi Matt,

I wonder if the paint/fabric protection option I signed up for with the dealer included this kind of protection? I'll give them a call tomorrow !

BTW, I did mean those ugly leather things - but I figure it's only for the trip up and back - it wouldn't be on full time.
Cheers,
Michael

Thanks Huu,

I'll give 'em a buzz tomorrow.

Might be pricey, but I'd rather pay $150 than have a bunch of stone chips to ponder when I get back.

Thanks for the info.

You might be better off just buying the Peugeot plastic bonnet protector. I think it's only $70 or so. That would cover the spots that I got most of my stone chips - just above the Peugeot badge on the bonnet.
