    WTB - A bra for a longhood with factory steel sport bumber

    Is there such a thing? The one's I've seen are set up for the standard bumper and have the flaps for the lower fog lights. It would be great to find something better tailered to this style. Just looking for a way to protect my freshly painted car on long or spirited drives.

    Anyone??

    Thanks,

    Alex

    Contact Tony at Autobahn and have him make you a custom fitted one when one of these cars comes into his shop. You can choose vinyl color, binding, etc. I've seen some of the custom ones he's done for 356's, VERY sweet.

    Both the 3M and the custom Autobahn Interiors solutions are appealing. Questions: What does the 3M material look like close up? Anyone have good or bad experience with that material on these cars? Also anyone out there have any pictures of custom bras with an Steel S bumper? Would love to see how this might look well executed...

    Thanks,

    Alex
