Protective Bra Cover
We have a 2012 Fleetwood Discovery. I want to put one of those black bra covers over the front end to protect it from rocks etc... Where can I get one? Does anybody have a recommendation, or the name of a company/web site where I can get one?

Just don't leave it on if water gets between it and the coach body. Take it off and dry it out as well as dry the body. The moisture trapped there will do a number on any decals or paint stripes on the front of the coach.

You really do have to take caution as Andy mentioned. Our first coach had the bra and really damages the paint. It's really costly to re paint. However, if beat up by rocks same scenario. If you check MH magazine and especially FMCA mag you'll see a lot of adds. Wade RV in FL. Is a good source.

There is a better way!! to protect the front from rocks and bugs. The clear 3M mask which I have on the front of our coach and then I just saw a clear rhino mask that was sprayed on a large rv coach. It was beautiful and did not disturb the paint lines.

Hi brianlori,
Are you now or will you be in the Tampa, Florida area? If so, Lazy Days has a company at their dealership that excels in bras for the front of a coach.

Clear Rhino?? I hadn't heard of that, thanks for the tip. I'm leaning toward color matching by Rhino after removing that damn Diamond Shield.

I agree... I had them put one on our prior coach in 2000 and it was still in good shape when we sold it in 2012.
Regarding taking it off when wet... I took it off once or twice a year over that 12 year period and it saw plenty of rain... there was no damage to the paint or decals.

Yes, Clear Rhino sprayed on the front of a Newell right over the paint job. Looking at it from the front, you could not see it! Our 3M mask needs help soooo i'm looking into the company that does it and the cost $$$ factor.

The only Rhino Lining clear product I see online is designed for sealing concrete. Do not see any mention of using over paint.

Here is a motorhome getting a sprayed on black bra.

GREAT VIEWING! If they do it in colors they can do it in clear so the paint job shows through.
