I just got back from my dealer where I ordered my car bra for my RT, love bugs will be out in Florida in the fall.

Counter lady gave me a new booklet that shows all the accessories for the 2005 Magnum, she said it just came out.

Back cover lists catalog number #00PM4169, get yours today.

It is a folding booklet, 3 pages, so it has 6 sides. It lists accessories and show a photo of what it looks like.

My car bra should be in tomorrow, one day turn around service.

Later,

Bob

 

Thanks,

I face the same issue with those pesky love bugs. I'll definitely be looking into the bra/cover to get through that season each year.

 

I forgot to mention that my dealer gave me a discount card, I get 10% off all parts I buy.

Not a bad deal.

Good deal! Thanks for the timely information. I'm taking my RT in for it's 3000 mile service tomorrow so I'll look for it then. I was wanting to get the bumper cover for the back bumper so as not to scratch it when loading in the back. I've been very careful so far not to scratch it, but I'm sure my luck will run out someday.

By the way, my dealer is performing the 3000 miles service free of charge. I was wondering if anyone else was getting this curtousy? Is it a Dodge thing or a dealer-by-dealer thing?

My Back-In-Black RT order is in BX status so I've been killing time reading the posts from current owners here and on a couple other sites. I also am in Florida and over the past several years the damn love bugs have eaten the paint off the front of my Lexus GS400 along with damaging the plastic headlight covers. I haven't had car bra in about 10 years. The one I had was on a Lincoln 2-door and was a royal pain in the butt. It didn't fit well and simply trying to open the hood was a major undertaking. Is the Magnum bra a 2 piece deal with one covering the sides and grill/front and another piece on the front edge/portion of the hood? If not, you'd have to undo the fasteners in the wheel wells, fold the bra forward and then open the hood. Not a fun thing in a thunderstorm. Also, what'd the dealer bang you for it?

 

George, I see you are in Orlando, I am not that far from you, I am in Ocala.

The Magnum Bra is a 2 piece design, one goes onto the front part of the hood, the other covers the grille and front part of the fenders. I haven't opened up the bag yet, but I assume there are no mirror covers (front door).

This allows you to open hood without having to remove bra.

BTW, I guess the bra comes in two forms, one with a hole for front license plate and the other with no hole for license plate. My parts lady asked if I had a front plate and I said NO WAY!

I only plan to use it for long trips and those love bugs.

Parts lady was nice enough to remind me to remove the bra if it gets wet from rain or car wash. Otherwise dirt gets trapped in and rubs paint off.

Going in today to have rear reonators removed, I already have Flowmasters on.

Forgot to mention that car bra goes for $145 + tax, I got it for $140, including sales tax.
