Default Colgan Bra question

Does anyone know if the ap1 w/front lip colgan bra fit an ap2 with front lip?

They only produce the ap2 bra for cars w/out front lips.

Thanks,

joe

The AP1 bra w/lip probably will fit the fit the AP2 w/lip, but you're going to have to stretch the hell out of the bra, find a creative way to hook the bra in different area's than provided, and fitment/coverage will be poor. Because of the different design of the AP1 front bumper, there will be significant area's of unprotected and exposed paint on your AP2.

Blue painters tape...sorry, but it is an option I've seen on cars when going mountain runs.

I'd look into a shop that can make a custom bra by taking measurements of your front end(of your car, lots of dirty peeps on here that can turn this sentence into a "joke of the week"). Maybe an upholstery shop would have more info on this...good luck.

I had a Colgan Bra, dont bother. Fitment sucks the metal tabs you have to insert into the seams between the headlights and fender chip your paint. If you get dirt underneath the bra its scratches your paint. Spend the money and get a clear bra.
