I need advice on a luggage rack for my yet-to be delivered car. Does the rack fasten to the engine grill or to the glass of the rear deck lid? It would be neat to have the rack tie on to the grill, but wouldn't this damage the grill? I would plan to attach only a small suitcase (light as possible), so the super-wide variety would not be a consideration. What is the consensus about brand and construction, and which companies offer them (price discounts are always welcome).
Also, I have seen pictures of bras to protect the front-end paint. Some extend farther up onto the car, but one I may be more interested in extends not much farther up than an imaginery line between the headlights. Which type would work best? Does a bra cause paint damage? Where can I find one? These are really dumb newbie questions, but I am a dumb newbie.
