Hey Ken,
Do you know the owner of the campsite by chance? Every time I call Red Ridge Lake Campground I don't get an answer......

Anyone know the brand of hood cover shown on a couple of the trucks in the pics above? I've ordered the truck shields for the sides but have been wondering what to do about the hood.

OldHiker

Dan and I have the full coverage bra. I took mine off immediately after this trip. I don't like the flapping and what it does to the paint on the hood.

Do you know the brand and where you got it?

Dan
05-04-2005, 09:10 PM
Its made by Colgan. The full cover ones are hard to come by. I found a guy that could get them from the factory. Let me see if I can dig up the name.

Dan
05-04-2005, 09:17 PM
I found the guy and emailed him to see if he can still get them. If so I'll pass on his email address.

I was checking out the Colgan Bra (http://www.colgancustom.com/index.shtml) at Paragon and they are made extremely well.
You may be able to find them here Colgan Bra (http://www.colgancustom.com/index.shtml)
Maybe a group buy is in order!

Dan

Okay, here is the bra info:

Contact - cs4s@comcast.net
Mikes Custom Car Care Products
Colgan Full H2 Bra

If you're interested in one, shoot him an email. I let him know some people might be emailing him about it.

Make sure you ask for the FULL bra. There is a ½ one that leaves half the hood exposed.

He'll invoice you through PayPal and the bra will come shipped direct from Colgan. Mine came in a few days.

Tell him Dan sent you. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

I just noticed that my front plate is gone off the truck. I thought maybe the detailing guys took it off yesterday but after looking at the pics I see it was lost at Paragon. I bet that last high speed run through the mud ripped it off. The screws are still in the bumper. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif

Glad it was just a decorative plate! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Zing
05-05-2005, 09:23 AM
That front plate really isn't secured well. I noticed mine hanging on one side after going through deep snow this winter.

But screws still in the bumper? I wonder if someone swiped it???

Dan
05-05-2005, 09:25 AM
If you look at the pics above, it's on there at the campground, and then gone after Paragon. So I lost the plastic plate holder and the plate itself. No biggie, I'll get another. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Dan -- Thanks for the contact info. I ordered the bra for my truck last night. All set now for the trip to Kinzalow's next week!!

Dan
05-06-2005, 11:49 AM
No problem, glad to help!

The only thing with the bra is that it puffs up a bit about where the headlights are. There is no way to get a hook in that area.

I put a piece of the shields tape along the area where the paint meets the grill to keep the bra from marring the paint. Just in case.

mstams
05-06-2005, 12:19 PM
Yep. I was already thinking about taping the nose and air cover edges as well. What brand / type tape do you use? I've seen in threads mention of the Duck brand duct tape and the weather seal. Just curious about your preference. Thanks.

Dan
05-06-2005, 12:28 PM
The weatherseal tape is probably better if you think its going to get wet. Otherwise you can just use painters tape.
