Hi Laurie,

You are probably adding in the mirror covers which are $50 bucks.

Double check and let me know...

Thanks,

Jim

Jim,
You are right. I was not using my account I set up with you on my last order. Must have got things mixed up. It worked right this time. I will be ordering this week on my account with you closer to payday. Thanks so much and will be in touch shortly.

Laurie

Here in AZ freeway and side street have desert landscaping on both side of the road. The bra that I purchased offer "NO PROTECTIONS" from Rocks, gravel, sand, etc it is just a waste of money.

Ok...Gotta ask....Why is it on your car? I find it hard to believe that it is not protecting you from your above mentioned hazards as I have used it on my car for many years and know it does exactly what it is supposed to do.

I also have to ask, if it was such a waste of money, why in the world would you post here (with a picture proudly displaying it on your car) rather than simply not send it back to me for a refund?

Help me out, what am I missing....I am hoping that you might be trying to give me a plug rather than a slam? Maybe you are referring to another bra you purchased rather than mine?

Help me understand.....

Thanks,

Jim

I have one and I think it does a great job protecting the front of my car. It takes up no space for storage and goes on and off in a snap.

Yes, pictures are on the site...Look at the C6 Bra, there is a picture of a silver C6 Z06 with the silver bra.

Snaps are on screw heads that replace the screws in the fenderwell.

Thanks,

Jim

Does anyone have this installed on a lowered C5 ?
How will this material stand up to slight ground scrapes ?
If I scrape/tear the material while coming out of a driveway, will the damaged area run ?

Like any material, it'll get ripped when firmly scraped on the ground, but at least this material won't run. No bra is intended to protect the car from rubbing on the ground, so if you're worried about that happening I wouldn't suggest looking for a bra as a solution.

Thanks,
Dave

Default Didn't Work

I Purchased One From Ecklers. It Does A Great Job With The Bugs And Comes Out Of The Washer Looking New, But It Doesn't Stay In Place. There Is Nothing On The Bottom Of This Product To Keep It In Place Other Than Elastic Poor Design). The Staps In The Wheel Wells Hold Rock Solid, But The Bottom Has Rode Up Twice On Me, Once At 130 Mph (would Not Have Expected Anything Less) And Once On The Freeway At 70 Mph With Alot Of Truck Traffic (not Happy).

This question might have already been addressed, but I wasn't about to read through 10 pages to find it! Will this work with the Tigershark front end??

Should work.. we've never tried but you're more than welcome to try it out. If it doesn't work, just send it back. I'd be curious to know either way.
Hope that helps..

Thanks,
Dave

New from Southern Car Parts

Do you want to protect the front of your car from rock chips and bug debris? Do you hate the hassle of the standard leather Bra (hard to take on and off, rough on paint)?

Perfect solution for highway trips, when the trip is over, take it off and put it in your cargo area. Off or on in less the 2 mins. Best Bra solution on the market for the Corvette.
