Has anyone found a source to buy a bra from for 2005 Vibes? This car has been out almost a year and i still haven't been able to find a bra for it. I need one bad, i drive way too much and already have a nice chip in the hood.

No the grill was redesigned in 05 and im pretty positive the opening is different, other than just having the plastic in there.

I found one for an 05 Vibe. I just picked up my new AWD Vibe tonight. Anyhow, go to carbras.com. Looks like they make a pretty good one and they back in for 5 years, like Colgan. They're out of stock buy will have more in a couple weeks. Good luck.

I really hate bra's... cars or otherwise but I guess considering my paint situation it'll be a good temp fix til I decide weather or not I want to repaint my car.

I had a Colgan bra for my Hyundai. Had it on for about 3 years. Never had a problem with it, was very easy to take on and off, and never hurt my paint. Only thing I did was remove it and wash the front end and spray any dirt off inside it whenever I washed the car. The one I ordered from Carbra.com makes the same claims as the Colgan. We'll see I guess.

Quote, originally posted by Man of Steel »I had a Colgan bra for my Hyundai. I just got off the phone with Colgan and they do not make one for the 2005 Vibe yet. They put my name on a request list to call after one is designed. Basically what they lady told me is that they need someone to bring an '05 Vibe into their shop so they can design one, then they will have it available for everyone. So, anyone near Fountain Valley, CA 92708 who would like to stop by the Colgan facility with an '05 and get the ball rolling?

Yeah, you're right Colgan doesn't make one yet for the 05. But there is one out there available and like Colgan it has a 5 year warranty. Go to carbras.com and check it out. They're out now but mine is on backorder and should arrive week after next.

My car bra did arrive. It was on backorder. It' seems to be well made, fits nicely and comes on and off easily. No need to buy an 04 bra when you get one for an 05. If you apply anything to it for protection, make sure its non silicone.
