Default ID this please?

I know I'm going to end up looking silly but can't figure out what this is. Says Colgan Custom 233-07-93. It came with all the accessories for my 98 a few years back. Never paid attention to it before and it doesn't seem to fit anywhere.

Thanks for any help.

Thanks for the thoughts. At first I too thought it was a bra with headlight covers, made so they popped up when the lights came on. But it certainly doesn't fit a 98. Then I thought maybe some kind of dash cover for when the sunroof was off, but that doesn't work either. It is all one piece. Could it maybe be from an older model vette?

Sure does look like a front bra - maybe send a message to Colgan with the part number and ask them to identify it for you.

Oh ha ha LOL..

Contacted Colgan and after several e-mails back and forth, they don't have a clue. Say the number doesn't match anything.

As for it being a Porsche bra, I'll mention that to Colgan. I'm sending them a closeup of the imprinted numbers and mfr. I don't think they believe me. :]

At least we've narrowed it down to a bra. So once again, thanks to all.

BTW, the Porsche forum people have pretty much confirmed it's a Porsche bra. Thanks RobertMiller for pointing me in the right direction, and everyone else for your help. You all never fail to find answers for my questions..
