Todd, the GM bra is a great value. If you are only going to use it on road trips, you can't beat the price. We've had it on for two round trips from Mass to BG and it has more than paid for the $75 I spent on it.

If you have to wear one, wear one that fits, and the GM bra fits great. Had mine for almost two years, and still hugs (and lifts ) the front end great.

Can you see the full license plate on the GM bra or just the thin window for the Covette lettering?
Thanks

I just installed the GM Bra. The only real pain was making it fit over the license plate. This obviously only applies if you live in a state that requires a front license plate.

I was glad I had a contured license plate cover. It helped the fit after I had to trim it.

A little (A LOT) pricey , but is high quality and looks great in color!

Depends on how much you decide to keep it on I guess to justify its high price.

One last time on this. I'm having trouble getting the picture of the marine snaps everyone refers to. I've done some looking on-line and don't quite know what I'm in need of here. My only guess is we are talking about screws - #8 5/8" long - that have a snap head on them? Do these simply screw into the existing clips? Will the clips still need to be removed? I know this get tiresome for those that have been there, but I don't have a marine store near me, and if I make a special trip I want to be sure to get the right thing.

The snaps just screw into the clips. You put it in just like a screw. The screw head is recessed into the snap.
