So my car is at the dealers and I thought, "Hey, maybe I should do something else to the car."

The problem is that I can't think of anything useless enough. Illuminated door sills? Any other good options? Maybe some non-useless options? Maybe something not as expensive?

Peace.

Put a clear bra on at least the front end. It's not useless.
Other items are to have a wood piece installed on the passenger air cond. control pod.
Or maybe a chrome front grill.
Or a wood gear shift knob.
Or Window Tint
Or swap the rear grill inserts for reflectors.
Or a body kit
Or new wheels
Or? anyone else?

Yeah, you guys keep talking about clear bras.

Are they really clear? Seems like an odd thing.

Peace.

JDN has posted some great pics of his Clear Bra. Search for them. It really is hard to tell.

Here is a picture of the Venture kit. The bra is on the front bumpers and rear view mirror, too. There is a "save" on the bumper on the left side. Whatever made that blemish, did not get through to the paint.

If you look closely, you can see the bra as it comes across the hood directly behind the left front head light. A reasonable person (from the legal statutes) will not notice the bra at all through casual observation. I rarely see it myself.

I don't really see what you're saying.
