Description

In 1960, upholsterer Bill Colgan created a revolutionary soft, front-end shield for protecting Porsche’s new 356 while it whizzed around the test track. 45 years later, Colgan’s Original Car Bra fits and performs better than any other car bra on the market.

The Original Car Bra sports UV-resistant 100% virgin vinyl—the heaviest in the industry—which is milled exclusively to Colgan’s high standards. It resists fading in the sun, shrinkage in heat, and stiffness in bitter cold. Plus, it’s backed by a finish-pampering layer of thick flannel that’s integrated into the vinyl to prevent separation. This cozy lining keeps your paint scratch-free while the flow-through screen over your grille lets your engine breathe.

Hand-tailored to the specs of your vehicle from multiple pieces of vinyl, the Colgan Original Car Bra delivers the best possible “memory” fit with no harmful flapping at any speed. The Colgan Original Car Bra fits factory headlamps and won’t keep you from opening and closing your hood.

Whether you want a little or a lot of front-end protection, there’s an Original Car Bra for you. Trucks and SUVs can get the full front-end bra with or without a T-style hood piece, or the T-style piece by itself. What’s more, you can choose between a classic Black or ultra-modern Carbon Fiber finish.

When you want proven protection from the folks that started it all, the choice is Colgan. They even back your Original Car Bra with a 5-year warranty.

Colgan Car Bra Review

Posted on 11/07/2006 by Micheal K. - 2004 Nissan Murano (Kennewick,WA)

0 of 1 people found the following review helpful.

"The Colgan Custom Bra arrived very quickly, not as long of wait as expected. Have not been able to put Bra on vehicle, as the front of the SUV has a 1-piece spoiler/air dam across the entire lower front fascia connects to both whell wells creating hardened mud flaps on the front of the wheel-wells. Also the spoiler piece is about 4 to 5 inches deep, making it impossible to attach the lower front clips as well. So I have a $150 auto Bra that I cn only use the hood piece. Not very competent for a "CUSTOM" car Bra."

"This is a great bra and since owning other Colgan Bras, it was very easy to put on without instructions, but it was very tight and it took a little bit of extra strength to get it on. It looks great, though and certainly worth the extra effort."

Colgan Black Finish Original Car Bra

Posted on 10/27/2006 by John G. - 2000 Audi A6 (Westlake Village,CA)

"We used an OEM Audi car bra for a few years, but, even when new, it fluttered at moderate highway speeds no matter how many times we re-adjusted it. Also, the materials fell apart after only a few years of conservative use. By comparison, the Colgan car bra fit like a glove: no fluttering even at high speeds; obviously superior materials; more intelligently designed fastening system requiring no alteration of the car like the OEM car bra and also fewer attachment points; and more thoughtful and purposeful seam placement. I do not see how anyone could improve upon Colgan's design, because the only engineering trade-off appears a necessary one: Colgan intentionally designed its bra to fit very tightly to avoid the fluttering flaw in the OEM design. Thus, getting the bra on initially takes a little more muscle than one would ordinarily expect."

hard to fit

Posted on 10/27/2006 by Gene L. - 2006 Honda Accord (Mentor,OH)

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.

"Quality of the product is excellent just as those I have purchsed in the past. The only difficulty I had was trying to stretch the bra on to my car. I had to remove the license plate cover due to the fabic not being cut properly. I did contact Colgan for some mounting assistance and their rep forwarded some helpful pictures. It took quite a bit of effort by me and my son to finally get it attched. The hood cover is o.k but the corners do not fit snugly, aliitle bit of gathering but exceptable. Maybe if it's on for a while there will be some give."

Colgan Z3 Bra

Posted on 10/23/2006 by Walt B. (San Jose,CA)

"Got my colgan bra for my Z3. Fit is outstanding. Looks great but I dont like those triangular bumps on the top of the hood. They must have some purpose to keeping the bra from fluttering. If there is no use for them they should go. I am pleased with it however."

"The 2006 Honda civic car bra fit good but the opening for the cooling air to the radiator is much smaller than the opening in the bumper. The 2006 Honda Odyssey did not fit good. there was no flap to tuck into the upper side of the headlight area which allowed the left & right area to flap."
