OK, I'm real tired if little chips in my front end. I got the bra from Top Notch and thought I would post pics for those of you who are interested.

Front 3/4 view:


Top View:


Side View/Close-up:

I know having pictures always helps me make up my mind. I hope these help those of you who are on the fence. Here's a few comments.

1. The fit is about what I expected. It's pretty good.
2. I've noticed no lifting at up to 75mph.
3. The "fake" ducts are completely covered as is my black chrome front badge. Hey, this solves the "shave the badge" problem!
4. It looks good on a black car.
5. Installation took about 20 minutes.

What do you think? I expect this to do a killer job protecting the front of the car.

Oh, I almost forgot, I also got the mirror covers as well. You can hardly tell in these photos, but they are installed.

Song,

I've had the Colgan bra for a while and about a month ago, they replaced it with the redesigned version. I also find it fits well and I've noticed very little lifting at speed. No question it protects the front. Not quite as "transparent" on my silver as your black, but I'll live with it to protect the car.

Looks good Song...However, I still do not want to wear a bra on my STOOK...I have a bra for all my previous cars but I think this time I will bear it all

It'll definitely do a nice job protecting it, but they look ugly, IMO.

HondaGal ---what door ding? I can't see one in the pictures. I do have a few though, but they are small.

TRICKS46 - there are different versions of the bra with and without the plate. You get to choose.

nvmy2Sk - I tried to live without for a while, but on sunny days when I am waxing or cleaning, I can see a ton of little bitty imperfections. They are caused by stones. I probably should of put the bra on sooner. But hey, better late than never.

I take it you don't have the Honda front spoiler???? Colgan said they would design one if they could get an S2000 with a spoiler
on it.
