I have used the Colgan for years with never a problem. Fit and finish is top drawer.

The black Colgan is super quality and a bargain at $110 shipped. It can be had without or without the front license plate opening and with or without the front C6 emblem window. I got the solid black bra and mirror covers for my Machine Silver coupe. http://www.colgancustom.com/

I bought a Colgan bra on ebay for about $100. I recently drove 1100 miles to Las Vegas, and back, and it did just fine. Exceeded the speed limit a few times - no problem. It fits snugly. I just removed it, and it was clean underneath.

In my case I was deciding between the colgan and speed lingerie, but opted for the speed lingerie. I got it today with mirror covers and it looks and feels great, not cheap but worth it.

How do you attach this bra to the car? Is it labor intensive? I've seen some that clip on, and others that require you to remove screws from the wheel wells. I would really appreciate your input on this. I looked on their web site, but didn't see any reference to how they attach to the car. Thanks a million.

I'm planning on purchasing a bra for the Corvette that I recently ordered, but I've also heard that they are bad for the car. Assuming that I take it off the car when it rains and I do not allow moisture to sit under the bra, are there any other real issues such as fading, etc.? I’m trying to avoid getting stone chips and I really do not want to spend the money to have the clear film put on the front of the car if I can avoid it.
