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.

"As other reviewers said, throw the instructions away and just put it on yourself. If I can do it (a girl) anybody can. I love the look of it and I know it will protect the front of my car from rock chips. Great buy!"

"This bra was everything I had expected. Nice quality and a good fit. The only problem I had was that I had to drill a hole in the underside of my car hood for the bra hook to attach to."

Perfect fit

Posted on 05/08/2006 by Tom R. (Alpharetta,GA)

"I was a little upset when I had to wait a couple of weeks, but the wait was worth it. It fits snugly which really makes it look sharp with no wrinkles or sags. The exterior is smooth and the inside is easily cleaned with a soft brush. 100% satisfied."

Colgan Custom Bra for VW Golf

Posted on 05/08/2006 by Blaine S. - 2002 Volkswagen Golf (Albuquerque,NM)

"The fit and finish is superb. Installation takes under 2 minutes, removal half that. In my opinion, it was money well spent to protect my vehicle. I am very happy with this product and the customer service I recieved as well; I had to have my order rushed at the last minute and it was delivered according to my new schedule. Perfect."

Mazda RX-8 and the Colgan Bra

Posted on 05/07/2006 by Jordan M. (Phoenix,AZ)

"The finish of this carbon fiber bra is beautiful. The design of the bra itself is anything but. First, there is no cut-out for the Mazda logo on the nose, that many other bras I've seen have. Second, it is nearly impossible to get this bra to fit symmetrically across the front; it is always biased to one side across the grill of the car, showing one side edge of it, and covering the opposite edge. It may take 3 or 4 days before the bra stretches out to pliable and movable, despite 30 minutes in 90 degrees of sun before installation. Stay far away from this brand for your RX-8!"

Not bad, not bad at all

Posted on 05/04/2006 by Robert F. - 2004 Chevy Suburban (Ellisville,MO)

"Fits nicely, easy to put on, looks very good. Directions are poor quality (compared to the bra) and the pieces that attach the bra underneath the front end should be made differently so you don't have to rebend them with pliers. It's too hard to do. Overall I'm very happy with the bra and would recommend it to others and would buy one again. Takes a littl long to get them too."

RX-400h C.F. Bra

Posted on 05/03/2006 by John M. (Mariposa,CA)

"Overall, the Colgan carbon Fiber RX400 bra is the best worth per dollar item on the car. Don't likes are hard to fit fender-well clips and a tendancy of the bumper portion to slip downward blocking pop-up headlamp squirters. I live in the mountains with lots of rock-surfaced roads. In a month it has saved several expensive chips. Too bad there is not one for the windshield! John Meloy, Mariposa, CA"

Posted on 05/03/2006 by Theresa V M. (Tracy,CA)

"The car bra went on surprisingly easy and seems to fit well for the most part. I did leave it in the sun for over an hour to help. The only issue is the two tabs on the outer side that are supposed to tuck under the headlights, don't fit under."

"Bra was received two weeks ago, but the weather has not been warm enough to install it. As soon as the weather cooperates enough the bra will be installed, hopefully this week. So, until then am unable to rate it. So far the buying process has been superb."
