Yep, Carbon Black over Cinnamon.

Removing a clear bra - if it doesn't harm the paint - leaves so much adhesive residue that you'd have to respray the part anyhow.

I do not like them, Sam, I am.

After the road rash I experienced on my S4 and Jeep SRT8, I wasn't going to go without it. Very harsh winter this year, salt flying, etc, and it still looks great. Maybe I went a little overboard, but I did the entire front end up 10" on the hood, mirrors, rockers up to the body molding, fender flares outside and under, rear door where it flairs out (this section got blasted on my Jeep, must be a wide tires thing), and rear bumper.

Hey Gus. I had an 06 SRT-8 and had the clear bra too and didn't regret it at all. I now have it on my X5, and again, wouldn't drive a car (that I cared about) without one! :thumbup:
