Is it the one which wraps tightly & form fitting around the pinched fenders behind the F turn signals, or the later colgan that isn't stitched form fitting?
How can I tell. I have never even opened the box. Do you have a part number that we can reference to be sure?
If you look at it at the area around the turn signal cutouts, you should see stitching to form fit it to the fenders & lie flat on the front deck lid. There may also be a pic on the box or instructions showing if it form fits flat to the dekc lid & around the fenders' shape, or that it more or less spans between the fenders' tops.
You should be able to check it without opening the plastic bag.
Also, if you bought it new from Colgan in the last 5-10 years, then it probably isn't the early & more expensive to produce form fitting type.
Sorry, but I have no idea what Colgan's 10-15 year old part no. would've been.
The form fitting ones tend not to flap as much - if at all, whereas the later "spanning" type has 1-2" of space over the deck lid & can flap at freeway speeds. So IMHO they're not as good & could cause scuffing on the paint of the lid.
TIA for checking!

It has 3 bendable "clamps" on each side of the bra near the round light holes, and some stretchable elastic under the vinyl as well to pinch it very tight. It appears that the bendable "clamps" go around each fender because that is where the round light holes are on each side. Here are a few pictures. It appears like the tight version described.
