Default Z06 Bra

My neigbor just purchased a new Black 2002 Z06. I have a GM Bra on my convertible and we are trying to figure out if the GM Bra can be used or should he just buy a new one that is specific for the Z06. What are you guys using?

No problems on extended road trips with the regular GM bra on our Z. The GM bra we bought for my coupe works fine; other than removing the clear sections to open it up for cool air, I don't know what else would be specific to the Z. (btw, I wouldn't advise removing the clear sections - you might induce flapping and damage the paint...)

I opened up the clear sections and the bra fit like crap, so I bought another and only cut out the section in front of the grills. I then had a shop sew in a vertical strap (1/2 inch wide) at the end of the clear section and two more in the open area in front of the grills. The bra now fits fine and I’m getting cold air in through the grills.
