Welcome !

Nice product!

One suggestion, there need to be 2 reinforced holes placed in the front shield to accomodate the bungy hooks for the hood piece of the oem bra.

Right now, I have to remove that section of the shield and work the hooks/bungy behind it, not the best arrangement.

I could drill a couple holes in it, but without being reinforced, I worry that putting the hooks in it would tear the plastic shield.

I've heard nothing but good things about these. But there a little pricey.
Do members get a discount?

I got mine several years ago and they were a little pricey I guess, but seemed cheap compared to the hood/trunk damage they help prevent. IIRC, there was a PCA discount offered.

If forum discounts are offered, any retroactivity...???

Hello, Jim here, - Partly responsible for trying to protect all those naked lids out there. As a sponsor I think we would have to offer some kind of group buy -Assuming we have interested members in covering up...



LB- Have you tried removing the middle clip on the outside edges for hook placement?

I did, but that thing is in there tight! I was afraid I was going to ruin the clip, so I just lifted it up and got the hook underneath, leaving the edge on both sides loose. This works, but pinches the trunk seal pretty good.

Don't worry about the clip. Since the liner is held with multiple clips(10), you can remove the middle side clips and leave them out. You may want to pull the liner down(grap a corner and tug) and then remove the clips and reinstall. If necessary, we offer free clip replacement.
