Previous 1 2 template Next. The way i see it they only protect a small strip at the top of the bonnet, so what about the rest of the front of your car. In this example of a modern car with colour coded bumpers etc is there really any point of protecting just this front part and neglecting the rest?

What are the alternatives? Car bra's? Anyone use them? Personallly i think they only look good on black cars. How much protection does regular waxing provide?

LOL steve - coming from someone who owns a black car prone to stome chips I sort of have some experience in this. The PT is shocking for stone chips due to a combination of the front end design and thin paint.

Anyway this is my feeling on it. The majority of stone chips you get on the front of a car are on the front of the bonnet where it curves over. An exteme example of this is an XE Falcon. Have a look at an old one and see how many chips they have there.

A standard bonnet for your Navara will be made from plastic, however, there are also models that are made from a more durable material, such as tough acrylic or fiberglass.

Whichever you choose, rest assured that it will definitely make a great difference in your overall riding experience. A lot of people seem to confuse bonnet protectors with bonnet bras, which are two somewhat different things. The bra goes along the front part of the car where the lights are, while the bonnet only covers the top of the hood. The reason I am telling you this is because the former is prone to peeling of the paint of the car and people think a bonnet protector does the same.
