Default Nitro Car-Bra Australia
Hi,
I am considering buying a Car Bra for my FG XR6. Does anyone have a picture of a Bf or FG Car bra in black or in the colour NITRO?
Thanks,
Brad

Sorry but this one is on Octane. They couldn't do colour code so they trimmed it in orange for me. I stuffed up and forgot to tell them the front plate was a slimline. Great fitting bra. Very snug and tight.
Cheers
Keith

Hi Keith
That looks great. Is that a authentic Car Bra? How long did it take to get made? And cost with it trimmed like that, if you don't mind?

Thanks Nick, I looked at those autotecnica ones but have decided to spend the cash and go for the colour coded Car Bra Australia brand.

I just got a Car-Bra Australia one for my BF Super Pursuit, rang up at 2:50pm on Tuesday it was in Moree on Thursday. Quality looks great, haven't had a chance to fit it, we've had another bit of a dust storm up here yesterday and now its a proper storm so haven't been able to properly wash the ute.

G'day Brad
Yep this one is an authentic Car Bra, the only brand I buy. I don't remember the cost (I bought it around July 2008) but it was around $450.00. I rang them in Melbourne on a Thursday morning and the car bra was delivered to me in Brisbane at 8.00am on the Friday (less than 24 hours later) as I needed it for the weekend. The orange piping was their suggestion and I'm pretty happy with it. I don't think it cost any extra as they would have had to put black on if not the orange. I have 6 car bras and this one is the best fitting one I have ever had.
Cheers
Keith

I still have a Lightning Strike coloured one in as new condition off my previous BF F6.
It's for sale if anyone wants to make me an offer.
