Has anyone tried using a temporary hood cover of some sort, instead of painting the bonnet? Just thinking about it during the commute home today. Seems like you could make a neoprene "bra" of sorts and just put it on if you wanted to make a night run. Then, you wouldn't have to paint or sticker the bonnet.

Any thoughts, suggestions or comments?

Mr. Davis..........

Thanks for chiming in. Have you since painted your hood? Mine is light also (white) and I know it will be a problem.

No. I'm 6'4". If I paint my hood or apply a decal, I won't be able to see the overhead traffic lights! Besides, my rack hasn't arrived yet so my lights are sitting in my garage. Just couldn't pass up the opportunity to give you a hard time.

A friend and I had talked about making a bra-type-thinger, but figured it would be easier to just paint it and look better to. Are you or why aren't you interested in painting/decal?

Well, Clif, I haven't decided one way or the other yet. Just seemed like the bra idea wouldn't be permanent. Also, as it would only get up on when I was venturing somewhere off road at night, I wouldn't have the typical bra problems of worn paint.

Just a thought that I was curious about. I'm sure I'll end up just gettnig the sucker painted.

Tahnks, Greg
