Thanks for that, I have contacted them previously and received samples but they don't have a template for a 71 superbug.

The black on yours looks good fits very smooth.

I even made contact with a guy with a 71 S/B to see if he could go to them to make a copy, he was 7 klms away but he was extremely busy.

I want to get their hot house green colour as it suits the car, better than black on my car, I think.
It's a chameleon colour and changes from green to gold.

Robco car bras in Sydney don't have a template either and black is the only colour they have that would suit.

I'm still hoping someone close to Campbellfield Vic. could call in and they could take a pattern.

I had a Roboco one over 25 years ago, but I don't have it any more.

Thanks again.

Darryl

I took my car to them and they took all day to make the bra and pattern, a very good job and if i remember it reflected in the price.

Shane, have you had any trouble with the paint fading under the bra? Back in the 70's I had a VW one from a dealership in the UK that was black and white chequered pattern and the original paint was light metallic blue when it was removed the paint was definitely faded in the same pattern and that was with what little sun we had over there! Never bought one since.

I have no issues with any of my cars, they all live in the shed with car covers on them and do not spend there life in the weather.

Hi,
Anyone know of someone with a Superbug, I have a 71, that may be agreeable to go to Carbra Australia in Campbellfield so they can take a pattern, so I can order one,

I would donate $100 for their help.

Thanks,

I can get one in Sydney, in Black.
But I want the hot house green colour from Car Bra Australia in Victoria, they just need a superbug for a paten.
