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.

"This is my second Colgan Bra purchase. Love them. They hold up great, maintain their looks, and don't loosen with age. If you make the effort to install it correctly, it will pay you back with no flapping in the wind and years of quality."

"I have been using Colgan bras on my cars for several years now and this one for my 2008 Tahoe is just like the rest...Excellent! The soft backing is kind to the vehicle's finish and the fit is perfect. I chose for the first time, the carbon fiber style vinyl and it looks very good. I highly recommend Colgan Bras!"

"THE COLGAN BRA IS THE BEST BRA EVER DEVELOPED. THE BRA HUGS THE VEHICLE SO WELL,THAT IT LOOKS LIKE IT IS A PART OF THE VEHICLE.THE CRAFTSMANSHIP IS EXCELLENT. WHAT I REALLY LIKE IS THERE IS NO DRILLING OR ASSEMBLY REQUIRED, JUST FIT AND HOOK. I RECENTLY BOUGHT A BRA FOR MY PARENTS LEXUS,COLGAN OF COURSE. MY PARENTS LIKED THE LOOK AND FIT SO WELL,THEY WANTED IT. I HAVE A 2008 CHEVY SILVERADO CREW CAB. YOU SHOULD SEE THE LOOKS I GET WHEN TRAVELING."

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.

"It was quite a challenge to close the hood once both pieces were installed. I was afraid that i might damage the bra. I guess with time they'll "settle" down. Other than that the installation was very easy and intuitive. The fitting is also very nice and the craftsmanship is very good. The two triangles (i am not sure what they are called) do make the car look longer while and it takes a few days to get used to them. I am not sure what they are for but if i were hazard to guess, they probably make it more aerodynamic???"

"The colgan car bra for my mercedes was easy to install and was intended to protect the front end from rocks kicked up off the road, especially in the winter. For that purpose the bra will function as intended. It did not flutter at high speed and was easy to remove at well. I will only use the bra as a funtional piece in winter months as salt and stones are spread out over the roads."

"The only thing that would improve the ease of install would be for them to tell you ware you need to install holes for the clips that hold it on. Other than that it was easy and fits really well. I’m glad I chose colgan over the other brands."

"I have owned Colgan bras in the past and when looking for one for my present vehicle of course I thought of Colgan. I did so because of the quality of the product I received in the past. I was disapointed however upon receipt of their latest product as I found the material much thinner(cheaper)than before and the fit was not as good as I have expereinced in the past"

"I had spent nearly six months trying to locate a removable car Bra for my wife's 2007 Lexus IS 350. I searched nearly every major sale site and found nothing that would work. The dealership wanted close to $1000.00 to put on a transparent coating on the front of the car. I really didn"t want them messing around the factory finish on the car and I didn't need that added protection all the time...only when we drove from Vegas to Southern California. I am a fanatic about my car and truck appearances since they bot cost more than my first house. Your Lexus Car-Bra was a welcome addition to our car/truck upkeep. Thanks for your insight and foresight on what car owners need."

Colgan Car Bra

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful.

"I live in Colorado so some kind of Bra is necessary for our two new Lexus ES 350's. I have the invisible bra on a Acura MDX but that cost $750 for each Lexus. These Colgan Bras are very well made and protect the nose of the car very well. I had a helper help me put on the hood part of the bra so that we could each pull on each side equally since the bra is very tight fitting. I would guess that the next time that I put it on it will have a little more give. I feel that this is an excellent product and will give our cars years of protection from the sand, rocks, etc that they throw on the roads once the snow starts falling."

"The package was received ahead of promised time. The box was to be checked for ID label for make, model, year (no year on label). The installation guide was better than most. The fit is great - only one minor problem: the frony license plate opening is 3/4" to wide to the driver's side. Otherwise, very attractive. I'm satisfied!"

"Overall I am very pleased with the product. It fits good and looks great! The installation is not for the faint of heart though, it's a bit confusing. It would appear the directions are a little generic to fit most cars. Once you figure it out, great product, great look! The customer service associate I dealt with was very helpful too."
