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.

X5 Car Bra awesome

Posted on 03/26/2006 by Sartaj C. - 2006 BMW X5 (Surrey,BC)

"Brand new X5 deserves the Colgan X5 that I purchased from Auto-Anything. It was little tight but after pulling all the strings, it fit perfectly. One thingn I could ask for add-on would be the space for center BMW logo in the front. There was no space for centre BMW circle logo in fromt of the X5."

"This is the third vehicle that I've used a Colgan nose bra on, and like the others it fits perfect. My only advice, place 2 more elastic straps with clips on the lower panel to keep it from sagging."

My Bra's Too Tight....

Posted on 03/17/2006 by Bruce M. - 2003 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class (Lomita,CA)

"The material used is top rate. Plenty of padding where the clips fit into the wheel wells, so I don't expect any scratches. Workmanship very precise as to cut-outs for lights etc.. Only complaint is stretching the unit to fit. I know it's supposed to fit tight, but jeeze... Best to let it sit in the sun for a long time before attempting to get it to fit. If I did it again, I'd put the hood of the car in the sun also to keep the heat in the vinyl material so it would be easier to stretch as you put it on the hood. The instructions are just so-so. They actually make more sense after you've tried to put the bra on once without using them. I hate the "bra" look on any car, so I was intrigued by the "matching color-of-your car" bras being offered by some companies. Very expensive, but so was my car! Sadly, no company makes one for my model car. I chose Colgan because they are the only company to offer a bra for my make & model. All I want the bra to do is keep my paint ding free when I'm on a trip involving freeway/highway driving. I know this bra will do the job."

Colgan Black Finish Original Car Bra

Posted on 03/17/2006 by Luis M. (Seaford,DE)

"We recently bought the Colgan Car Bra in March for our new Trailblazer. It is an awesome product! The quality of the material is exceptional and it is well worth the money we spent. The installation was quite simple and it fits our truck great! We've bought other brands of car bras before and they didn't last that long because of poor quality. We are absolutely thrilled with this product and have received many compliments on how nice it looks on our truck. Thank you!"

Colgan Cra Bra for 2003 Grand Prix

Posted on 03/14/2006 by Kelly C. - 2003 Pontiac Grand Prix (Manchester,MI)

"Installation of the top portion was easy and self explanatory. Installation of the bottom portion (particularly around the wheel wells) was difficult. Better instructions might have been helpful here as the instruction provided described 3 tabs when there were 5 for fixing the bra to the wheel well. Ultimately the bra fits perfect and looks great so I would reccomend it, especially at that great price."

instructions are confusing

Posted on 03/12/2006 by Jeff B. - 1997 Lexus LS 400 (Orlando,FL)

"To say the least the instructions are way too encompassing and broad. They need to be more make/model specific. After becoming intimidated by reading them before installation, I simply set them to the side and figured it out on my own. Also on the outside of my box the wrong year is posted for my car but the bra does fit."

It took awhile, but all worth the wait...

Posted on 03/12/2006 by Ken L. - 2001 BMW M Series (Singaport,CT)

"I was recommended to the Colgan brand, and it took over week (I live in Asia) for the Car Bra to arrive. It then took another few days of taloring (our cars do not have 'side markers' and our Licence Plates are of different dimensions to those in The US). Was it worth all the time and effort? A-B-S-O-L-U-T-E-L-Y!!! This Car Bra does not flap at 154mph!!! The only reason I rate 4 of 5 Stars, is that I actually had to think up and make effort in taloring the amendments... no fault of Colgan's, but if not for that, I would've given 6 Stars!"

Good not great......

Posted on 03/11/2006 by Jan H. - 2004 Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG (State College,PA)

"First it arrived without any directions on how best to "attach" it to the vehicle. Guess they work on the assumption that real men don't read directions anyway. Second, the metal clamps on the lower part were incorrectly crimped and would not fit over the fender lips. A considerable amount of time was spent re-crimping the the metal clamps and while the result is ok it is not perfect. With little additional effort and cost the Colgan Bra could easily be rated excellent but the way I received it falls well short."

"Straightforward installation and an excellent tight fit. Thick felt seems to offer great protection from assorted road debris. I no longer hear pebble impacts on my front end. Instructions are more bra style specific than vehicle specific, but any normal person can pretty much figure out how this thing goes on. Handles weather well and cleans up easily."
