Colgan C6 Millennium Yellow Bra - pics
Decided to go with removable bra instead of clear film for road trips, so did some research on the forum, and thought the Colgan color-matched yellow sounded good ( see positive comments on Colgan in other threads).
Was almost ready to call em for a color swatch, when I checked their location......SHAZAAM! They are 10 minutes up the freeway.
Arrived at their facility in short order, and spoke to a congenial young man at the front desk.
Through remarkable sleight-of-hand, he produced a 2" x 6" Millennium Yellow swatch, ( impressed - the color goes completely THRU the vinyl and backing) and advised me that the yellow is a special order (a few weeks) and unfortunately was not in stock.
As the California Sun was FINALLY shining again, I was anxious to be outdoors, so I thanked him and headed to my C6, intending to place a web order later.
I had just hit the start button, when a guy races out the front door, soon identified as Gary Bullis, Sales Manager (nice guy, but tall).
My lucky day - they will have a Millennium Yellow C6 Bra ready in 15 minutes, that was intended for a distributor, BUT.......
They need pictures of the Yellow on a C6 for their website and marketing efforts.
So, the deal is.....I buy the Bra, they mount it for me, and they get to take some pictures!
30 minutes later I am headed back to the beach with the bra installed!
Pictures follow - 3 in sunshine, 2 in garage fluorescent lighting.
I think the color match and quality are both superb, feel free to comment!
BTW, Colgan is at www.colgancustom.com and are located in Fountain Valley, CA.

That looks great. I have a yellow C6 on order and was considering the color matched Colgan bra. It certainly looks like the way to go. Unfortunately, I am stuck in limbo due to the C6 color change. I don't know if I will get Mil Yellow or Velocity Yellow. But it seems like the dealer is talking more about Velocity Yellow and I suspect that I am not going to get in under the wire. I hope Colgan has a Velocity Yellow bra in the works.

Looks great! I just ordered one.
Regardless of the color you order, make sure you order the right one for your lic plate situation. I had to ammend my order because I was not paying attention and ordered one with the lic plate opening when I wanted the one without!!
