From Fichtner:
The C6 bra does not have plastic over the headlamps, but cutouts
around th bottom of the lamp. We have sold quite a few of these already
and no complaints about fit at all. The quality looks excellent on the
cover. It mounts with snaps and hooks similar to the C5 bra.

My C5 GM bra worked great, and left no markes on the Tourch Red. So, I'm going to try the one for the C6 from GM on the Millennium Yellow. It's made by the same folks that made the C5 bra. It $79.50 at Fichtner's, according to the web info.

speed Lingerie is of the highest quality and gives the best protection
Very thick bra and protects fog lights and radiator/condensor. Will match color of your Corvette. Cost is around $600.

I have the 3M film & a Colgan bra for my setup. The 3M will keep any sand away from the painted surface and the bra adds a "heavy duty" protection layer if you will. I also went with Xpel for the headlight & foglights protection.
The Colgan bra (color is black) is top shelf. Fits real tight, easy to put on/off & the cost was $109. The 3M on the other hand cost $750 (material/install).

UltraShield in Chesapeake is the guy I spoke to in Dec. He quoted me $650 for Hood, upper & lower bumper, lights & mirrors. Go to the site and you get a better idea of just what the pattern covers. Basically it begins just above the headlights and covers the whole front. Rear View Mirrors as well. For 650 I also got him to agree to do aft of the wheel wells too.

Perfect Fit Bra
I'd steer clear of the "Perfect Fit" bra for the C6. Installation involves inserting two big tabs "carefully" between the headlight seals and the body panel on each side. Doing so pushes the seals down into the opening, and it's difficult to restore them to the proper position when you remove the bra. I sent mine back.
