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.

Does the trick nicely!

Posted on 09/15/2006 by Richard S. - 2006 BMW 330xi (Chicago,IL)

"Good quality. Easy to install after you've done it a few times. Long term prognosis looks good. I have no problem recommending this product to anyone who has to dodge gravel on a daily basis as I do. Too bad the Illinois Department of Transportation doesn't offer a line item tax deduction for this, since aparently they don't care if semis lose their loads. The investment is worth not worrying as much when I'm surrounded by gravel trucks on 90/94."

"The fit is not what I expected for the money. Over the head light there is no hold down straps, The hood portion requird I heat it up to get it to fit enough to shut the hood. I have other Colgan car bras for my TT and Chrysler 300 that fit fine. I don't understand why this was so differant. I bought this for my sons car as a gift when he gets back from Iraq. Little disapointed...."

Audi TT bra/mirror gloves

Posted on 09/09/2006 by Richard C C. - 2001 Audi TT (Coeur D Alene,ID)

"Quality of bra/gloves is good. Had to drill 2 lower center holes in lower plastic body pan for the lower center clips to hook, for a tight fit and to keep the clips from coming loose. A couple of "puckers" next to the headlight washer covers, allowing bugs to be scooped in on outer edges. Installation brochure was in black and white, hard to read and see the diagrams. Had a hard time figuring out how the 2 upper center straps hooked up. Overall, good products and I would recommend them."

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.

"The product itself looks really good now that it is installed. Some minor snafus: the instructions referred to using an included ABS installation shim that wasn't included in the kit - but that wasn't a real problem since I was able to use something else I had on hand; one of the elasticized clips that holds the bra in place was not properly sewn in place and broke off while I was in the process of attaching it to the air intake grille; the photos in the instructions were almost illegible. Otherwise. a great product."

Best Bodacious Black Bra

"We are very, make that: EXTREMELY, pleased with our purchase of a Colgan Black Bra for our 2006 Black Toyota Avalon Touring Sedan! The best thing to do with the instructions, which many other reviewers have derided, is to leave them in the box. A grade schooler with a keen eye can complete the first and subsequent installations by viewing the diagrams/charts. Steve"

"I have to admit how pleased I was with the quality of this truck bra. It was very easy to install and the fit was perfect. I made one modification to the piece by removing the netting with scissors to unleash my chrome front grill and that really did the trick. It was deliverd to my doorstep in 7 days. No more rock chips on the front end for me...well worth every penny. It's turning heads even more now."

Posted on 08/19/2006 by Tammy H. - 2005 Nissan Murano (Caruthersville,MO)

"i like how the bra fits my vehicle, also feels and looks very durable. the only thing that i don't like is there is a black net that goes over my grill. i would like for it not to have covered my grill, so for this reason i will only have it on my car when i am traveling a long distances. this netting does not protect bugs from getting on my grill as i just returned from a trip and bugs went through the net and was on the grill. can the net on the bra be cut off?"

"I ordered the Colgan bra for my new Cadillac CTS to protect the front end and new chrome grill for a 1300 mile road trip I had planned. I ordered the expedited processing and my new bra arrived in time for the trip. It fit perfectly, performed flawlessly, stayed put at 130 mph (brief test), and stores neatly in the bag I ordered. Bugs clean off easily with a damp microfiber cloth. I would recommend it to anyone looking to protect a nice car for road trips, around town I would rather show off the car!"
