I did it from that big padded hook that wraps around the guard.

Im always concerned when I go to put mine on as well, the best way to avoid damage is to have a second person helping with the initial stretch over the bonnet and guards.

Ouch… I have never fitted my car bra myself – that’s what my pit crew are for – but imagine you would need to be careful with those hooks.
Luckily we have a paint doctor in the club and I am sure he can advise on the best course of treatment for this wound. |

Don't blame uncle Jack I thought I was the only dumbass doing stupid things which ended up putting a pin stripe on the car In that case I will blame the dog , the push bike and the dog bed The dog moved his bed to get some height to get on the bike : it was not me who left the bike there and not moved the bed to save about 10 seconds. and it cost me grief And BTW Rod it will buff out : and also we are men we know how to remove a bra not put one on :evilking:

Baby's are getting hurt everywhere!
Had a run in with 3 pieces of 4x4 timber about 300mm long that came off the back of an old toyota ute along the Gateway last night as well as gravel! Damaged front bumper and l/h guard. Couldn't get rego No as I was too busy watching steel frame dangling over the back of the ute throwing sparks everywhere and waiting for it to let go! Get quote Tuesday.
