I find that in situations like that stress relief is in order, with another picture, of course.

I think you need a chin spoiler on those to avoid lift at high speeds! The fabric most likely produces unnecessary friction and should be removed.

The button is useless, as is this thread w/o more pics. I'll look for it in the OT forum when it arrives.

Don't worry this is not an uncommon occurrence with these models.
Just torque the button to 36 foot pounds and you should be o.k.

stress full

That type of bra damages the surface, I would like to remove it and install the 3M rock guard system and show of the beautiful finish

Remember when one of those threatened to let go in hour 23 at Le Mans? Was it Jurgen Barth who carefully navigated Porsche through that final hour?
