For long trip, I always carry a bottle of Quick Detailer and some micro fibre clothes (if no, a roll of paper towel will do as backup). Spray the Quick Detailer on the bugs (or ex-bugs), let it soap for a minute, and wipe 'em off gently. Sometimes it will need a couple rounds of cleaning, but it works well.

Regards,

You would still have to clean the bra, no. Or do you leave those suckers on as a badge of honor? If so you might cover the front of your car with flypaper.

3M clear bra is great - you do have to still clean the bugs off but it really saves the paint from rock chips, etc.

My bf bought something from autozone that you spray on the bumper that helps with bug clean up... I need to ask him if it works well.
