car bra's . . . good protection or not?

My oppinion is that car bras, along with carpet dash covers are really dumb.
The point of them is to "protect" the way the car looks right? Aside from
possible damage to the paint from trapping water, or being abrasive to the
paint on the freeway, they make the cars look down right silly. Especially
Audis that look GREAT to begin with. And what for? To protect the paint so
the car looks good......for the next guy? Why not have it look good for you?
Same with dash covers, I don't get people putting them on new cars with nice
dashes. They just make the dash look ugly, you might as well enjoy the dash
wile its not cracked. Same with the paint, if it's still in good shape, it's
a lot nicer to look at than some black cover on the front of the car.
Ok enough of my silly oppinions for one day ;)
