The Bracers of Armor page states:
Bracers of armor cannot have any armor special abilities that add a flat gp amount to their cost.
And, a Q&A with Jason Bulmahn clarified that Bracers of Armor do not count as any wieght class of armor, so any ability that specifies that it can only be put on light/medium/heavy armor can't be put on Bracers of Armor.
With those restrictions in mind, which Armor Special Abilities can you put on Bracers of Armor?
Well, I went through the list of abilities and found them.
+1 Armor Special Abilities
Benevolent, Billowing, Bitter, Calming, Champion, Cocooning, Crusading, Dastard, Deathless, Defiant, Evolving, Fortification (light), Grinding, Impervious, Poisoning, Spell Storing, Spellsink, Stanching, Vouchsafing, Warding
+2 Armor Special Abilities
Frosted, Ghost Spike, Jarring, Shadow Blending, Spell Dodging, Spell Resistance (13)
+3 Armor Special Abilities
Cotravelling, Fortification (moderate), Ghost Touch, Invulnerability, Sensing, Spell Resistance (15), Titanic, Wild
+4 Armor Special Abilities
Spell Resistance (17)
+5 Armor Special Abilities
Fortification (heavy), Spell Resistance (19)
Of the 122 Shield and Armor abilities, only 36 are applicable, and even then some of them make very little sense to have on the bracers, like Titanic, Poisoning, and Impervious.
