Nose Guards

Anyone got any info on bug guards for the Kizashi. Just bought mine and the one thing that I bothers me a little is the amount of touch up to the paint on the hood. I am considering getting it painted before to long. However I don't want to spend the money without some sort of protection. Any ideas?

Suzuki USA used to sell padded vinyl style "bras", they look pretty decent in pictures. There are probably still some floating around.

You could also invest in a 'clear bra', which is basically a clear vinyl wrap. A couple of members on here have one, and it has helped a lot with paint chips/bugs.

On another thread we discussed this. It appears some colours are worse than others. From what I have been told by someone who works for Suzuki, Black and Silver are the worst. White is the best.

Yep. Nothing to do with the colour of the undercoat at all, or where you drive. ;)

Absolutely. I find by leaving it n the garage and not driving it all, chips can be totally avoided.
