Hey Bro I love your car. I've been lurking for about a month a fell in love with your LeBra hood bra...not to many people rocking them on here.

Quick question I just ordered mine off ebay and the seller said its custom made to order so its going to take a month to get produced/shipped to me, is that normal? or Shady dealing?

Thanks

Thanks! I appreciate the love. Yea, there's only a couple other people I've seen with the bra.

It's been so long since I got mine that I don't remember if I waited as long as a month-- but demand for it hasn't really been high so I'm guessing that's why it's "custom order."

My advice would just bug them and check up every now and then if you're skeptical haha-- I've done it for some of the things I got for my car that took long.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll be sure to check in on them. Rock on!

I have the same one. There is a seller on ebay. Just one seller. The brand is Lebra. Just be warned the car bras are custom made to order. So it will be about 3-4 weeks until you get it.

Thanks! I'm currently rocking the plate on my dashboard now, though-- aesthetically looks better with no plate at all and easier to edit pictures

You never really mentioned anything about the bolt over grille. Is it one of the ones off eBay? I've been thinking of a similar piece, but having it powdercoated. Any thoughts on quality/fitment?

Ah yes, it's eBay; quality is adequate(black paint on the top and bottom of the billet pieces are fading). I plan to repaint it eventually when I have the chance.

Fitment could be better. It looks great from afar(especially front view)-- up close you'll notice that it simply goes on top of the oem grille. 3/4 view of the car and you'll notice the grille sticks out quite a bit.
You'll have to do something to the "buldge" where the emblem is on oem grille-- I just cut mine up so that there's barely any mesh left(but enough for the eBay grille to bolt on. It fit much better but doesn't go flush with it's surroundings. My hood bra covers up the top imperfections in fitment, and the chrome strip I added sort of covers up the part I said about it sticking out a bit from the side view.

Sorry I don't have any pics of the 3/4 side view, which tells you I don't exactly like that view haha.

Edit* cropped up my recent pic and tried to show with arrows how the grille sticks out:

As you can see, the chrome strip I added kinds of makes up for it as if it's part of the grille haha.

Good to know. My original plan was to buy a stock replacement and hack it up, replacing the stock mesh with a slightly different metal mesh and having it powder coated gloss black. Its a lot of work for something that looks barely different from stock. And it will likely be close to $200. I could live with a few imperfections and more money in my pocket, though. We'll see how winter treats my wallet.

You're welcome; yea I'd like to do something similar. I've always been a fan of the Noblesse kits:


I'd love to have a front face like that, or at least the grille.
