Nose/Mirrors Bra For Track Day

Anyone know of a nose+mirrors bra available for the 35is (or any with the m-sport package)? I'm looking for one to use for a track day.

Well, my thoughts are that the clear bra would get damaged by the rocks as well and would then need to be replaced. Then you'd have to pay to have it replaced again.

Was thinking of going the OEM BMW bra:

Then use track tape on the mirrors, rest of the hood and behind tires:

Not planning to drive this around, just use it on those SoCal rock, err I mean track, days.

Me neither, but it's just for the track. Put it on when I get there.

be careful a nosebra can get the engine overheating on a hot day track event.

That's what I was thinking along with it looks to be covering the brake vents...
