    I took the car to Mexico over the weekend and a rock hit the clear bra and took a slice out and looks to have damaged the paint underneath. I will call the place that installed it and see what my options are but anyone have this happen and if so options for repair? I have had rocks dent the clear bra and put small tears in it but that was after 80k of driving. This took out about a 1/2 to an inch dead center of the hood near the front bumper.

    Honestly it's prolly really minimal damage if any and it can most likely be buffed out with two or three step compound. Might just need a new clear bra. But I wouldn't fret some paint chips, my hood has a bunch of scratches and chips, should all come out this week when i do a full paint correction and go to town.
