le bra question 85-90 TA need answer fast

Does anyone have a Le bra on their 85-90 Trans Am and do NOT use the velcro like the instructions call for? I am only running this bra to and from car shows, so the velcro is out. Any ideas on a better way to secure the flaps in front of the lights?

thanks!!

Why not just cut-off those flaps? I don't think Camaro bra's have them. With them loose, you can see how tightly the bra fits over the nose anyway, so removing them isn't likely to affect its ability to stay up. It prolly should've been made like that to begin with.

Of course, the Camaro's is hemmed. But if that's really a concern, you could always take it to an upholstery shop to have the edges finished. Or just trace where you want it cut and have the shop do it all.

I put 2 coats of wax on, and it only going to be used on the way to car shows, sure beats clean off bugs at the show.
