Corvette Front Bumper Mask

The original “StetchBra” cloth Corvette Front Bumper Mask is tailored for an exact fit and is available in a choice of colors for your C4, C5 or C6 Corvette. The mask is convenient to use, easy to clean (hand or machine washable) and comes with a pocket-size storage bag which will fit in your Corvette’s storage compartments. Unlike other cheap Corvette nose masks our masks are Made in the USA and include a Lifetime Warranty. They are made of a polyester knit to get that great fit, without any gaps or warping even at high-speeds. The revolutionary material allows air to flow through, providing a clean look to your Corvette’s front end while protecting your Corvette’s finish from bugs and road grime. Its super soft material will not harm your Corvette’s paint.

The base model C6 Corvette Front Bumper Nose Mask, like the Grand Sport or Z06/ZR1 masks, installs easily in less than 30 minutes. Each “StretchBra” mask attaches with retaining clips across the hood opening area and snaps in the wheel well area. Once the snaps are installed the mask can be fitted to your Corvette in just minutes. A built-in stretch cord in the bottom of the mask pulls tight providing the clean, snug fit that can not be replicated with any other material.

For improved cooling efficiency, Z06 & ZR1 Corvette cloth bumper masks can be installed on Grand Sport Corvettes. The Z06 mask features a “screened opening” to improve airflow and reduce the potential for overheating problems common with Z06 Corvettes. While not required for Grand Sport Corvettes, the Z06/ZR1 mask will install without any modifications.

The “StretchBra” front bumper cloth masks are also available for C4 and C5 Corvettes. The masks fit all C4 and C5 Corvettes including the ZR-1, Grand Sport and C5 Z06. Installation and care of these bumper masks are just as simple as they are on the C6.

To show how simple the installation of these nose masks are we have included step-by-step instructions that show how to install the C6 Z06/ZR1 Corvette (Grand Sport if desired) Front Bumper “Stretch Bra” Cloth Nose Mask on a 2007 Z06…

Step 1

Remove the five (5) screws that attach the ground affects/fender liner to the front fender of your Corvette. Repeat for both the left and right side.

Step 2

Replace the ten (10) torx head screws with the ten (10) snap screws that are supplied with the front bumper mask. Repeat for both the left and right side.

Step 3a

Attach the snaps on one end of the nose mask to the inside of your Corvette’s fender (Note: The top of the mask has plastic retainer clips). Pull the bottom of the mask under the front bumper and stretch the mask across the bumper.

Step 3b

Attach the snaps on the opposite end of the mask to the inside of the opposite fender. Be sure that the bottom of the mask remains under the front bumper.

Step 4a

Anchor the top of the mask inside the engine compartment with the plastic clips. The two inner clips will attach just under the hood seal in the vertical position.

Step 4b

The two outer clips will attach on each end of the bumper mounting bracket in the horizontal position. Be sure to attach the outer clips to the edge of the mounting bracket as shown to keep the mask stretched tight.

Step 4c

Here you can see one of the inner clips has been attached to the bumper mount bracket. Make sure that each clip rivet is pulled away from the hood before moving on.

Step 4d

Here you can see both inner clips attached in the vertical position to the bumper mount bracket. Each clip rivet is inside the engine compartment allowing for hood clearance when closing.

Step 5

Place the Velcro strip supplied with the mask under your Corvette to mate up with the Velcro strip on the bottom of the mask. Attach the six clips in the center of the mask to the grill to complete installation.

After the front bumper mask has been installed check to be sure that all snaps are fastened securely and all clips are attached properly. It is not recommended to leave the front bumper mask on for extended periods of time. The mask may be cleaned by hand or machine washed in a laundry bag with a mild detergent (no bleach).
