I used to have one on my GC so there are definitely some out there.
Good for bugs and small stones.

Pretty sure you can get them. If you do use one dont leave it on for extended periods. Dust and dirt get under them and rather than chips you will get scratches and wear the paint down.

got mine from car bra australia when I bought my car in 2000. several trips to busselton/margaret river and no complaints.

only issueis that the elastic straps go brittle after a few years, but nothing my mum can't fix on the sewing machine though.

great product, just make sure car is clean prior to putting it on, in reality, not much dirt gets between the bra underlay (felt) and the paint, just watch out when wet as the dirt may seep in.

cost around $350 back in 2000.

oh and there is no problem with airflow caused by the car bra.
