Can anyone out there recommend a bra (not clear bra) for their BS? Looking at something that fits well and isn't impossible to install.
Going on a multi-state run in my newly acquired BS and wanted to have something to keep her from being beat up. Thanks!

What did you get? How do you like it? Tell us more!


For clear bra-
I think stickercity.com might be a good option they seem to be popular around la.

Are you looking for a black car bra? Like the rubber ones?

I'm not sure they made enough BS cars for the aftermarket to even consider making a car bra. If your concern with the clearbra is its removal, maybe look into a plasti-dip for your trip? Peel it off when you get home??

For the type of Bra you are looking for

I have never viewed a listing for the

CLK63 Black Series


Colgan Bras are the best of this type

but no listing for the B.S.


Thank-You

Just purchased a 2008 CLK63 BS. Very excited about the car!

I couldn't find a bra made specifically for the BS either, thought maybe someone had tried a regular CLK63 for fitment or I just wasn't looking hard enough.

The issue for me is not the removal but rather the installation. I'm going to pick up the car and drive it to it's new home but I wanted to have some kind of protection on the long drive home.

Last night, half asleep I thought maybe I'll buy a can of plasti-dip and try it on one of my cars... no, buy black painter's tape instead and tape up the front end... no, learn how to clear bra... dreaming of my new toy. Can't wait to see it again.

I wouldn't use plastidip, because you can easily overspray onto other panels and inside your grills, etc. And plastidip is very difficult to remove if you don't spray thick enough of a coating, so it's definitely not as it seems.

IMO your best bet is to get blue painters tape (The one that removes easily and what people use on track days). Do an extra layer for added protection. Easy on, easy off, super cheap, no stress. I've done it before on road trips on my other cars and it worked quite well. Keep in mind if you hit a big enough rock, it'll still cut through, but that holds true for all other means as well (Except for an ugly leather bra).

Good luck and congrats!

Good point on blue tape should work well. Ive used it before in the past for a track day.

Clear bra is really easy to remove if you're looking at only keeping it on for a short amount of time. It's only difficult to remove after 4+ years and the glue breaks down.

Thanks everyone for the input. Painter's tape wins!

This is 100% correct- at no point did I mean to suggest you should plastidip it yourself. The guys around here would charge a few hundred bucks to properly prep the surface, mask it off, and apply a thick, nearly invisible layer that would peel off easily.
