    Be careful with a bra. If it flaps or moves at all it can result in far more damage to the paint than either bugs or road grime including rock chips. I would never put a bra on a vehicle. You can have the front end wrapped.

    I don't have experience with using a bra but even the slightest bit of snow in front of the sensor and the cruise doesn't work.

    Adaptive cruise you mean. Regular cruise works just fine, regardless of sensor blockage.

    Personally, I never use adaptive cruise control. It always leaves so much room with the vehicle ahead, that other traffic merges in and makes me slow down further. And if I'm overtaking on the side when there's another vehicle in front, it'll slow down and not let me get closer to merge. Really, I've only found it useful in single lane and/or construction zones, where your speed is truly dependent on the car in front. They slow down, you do the same. They speed up, so do you. To each their own.

    You can buy some painters tape and cover the front for the trip . Might look like shit . It won’t damage anything .

    LOL. I’ve never had an issue with mine and never thought to look it up. Now I need to see if it works similarly on the Honda minivan....
