May not look the coolest, but stone chips look worse, and if it save's your paint, it's worth it. how much did it cost? been thinking of
getting one for the Kombi.

The no's seem to have it at the moment
The contast in colour is huge, plus I don't think the bra suits the age of the notch
Ageed, one of those mesh stone guards would look way better:thumb

interesting percentages.
who's doing the maths around here.
if you go with the bra, make sure it doesnt build up moisture behind it. A mate of mine had the front of his car blister up.

Seems a waste to have a car that looks that good and put something that ugly on it, spoils the whole look. I reckon I'd only fit one if I was
planning on selling it real soon and just want to keep it nice till then.

They have their purpose. I have one for the EH and only put it on when driving at dusk, as I hate cleaning bugs off the front of my car more than I
hate stonechips.
Generally I would only put in on once a year on average.
I also wear stonechips with pride. They are considered trophies in their own right.

There's always the option of painting your car over with a clearcoat designed for the signwriting industry... Armour Coat I think it's
called, made for overcoating vinyl or painted ground level billboards. It's clear, glossy, is almost impossible to scratch, can be scrubbed with
thinners or other solvents to remove graphiti of any kind, and is also designed to stop damage from thrown rocks and bricks... Might just give you
some serious protection and some extra shine to boot. Cost's a bit though.:bounce

I'm with the not good set. They are very practical and save your paint but they look awful on the car.
Mind you as Tazz said, you can take them off when you get where you are going.....

Ugly. It would be OK if it was colour coded to match the paint work as it wouldn't stand out like a sore thumb.
When I first got my buggy I was horrified to find some stone chips starting on the fibre glass nose. These are not repairable as my buggy isn't
painted. I made a stone guard from perplex so that it couldn't be seen. It all so doubles as a number plate bracket. Can you see it in my
photo?
