    Freeway is killing my paint !

    Have recently moved house, which now requires me to travel on a major freeway every day, lots of trucks

    I have noticed quite a few small paint chips all over my bonnet, and more worryingly, on my windscreen

    I dont really want to use a black car-bra, as they are quite ugly

    My friend did mention a clear cover\sticker, similar to ones race cars use, so stop the small chips everywhere

    However im not sure what to do about the windscreen, its only been a month and ive got so many on my new Golf R

    I had this same issue, as far as the window goes, I figured I would wait to it got bad enough and do the excess free windscreen claim on insurance, for paint I had this installed and it saved a lot of chips.

    Product information for Scotchgardâ„¢ Paint Protection Film

    thanks for that, it seems to be exactly what i need

    next question: where to i get some, and who can install it for me ?

    nevermind, think i answered my own question:

    Where to Buy VentureShieldâ„¢ and Scotchgardâ„¢ Paint Protection Film

    ill give some of the companies a call, see how much they quote me

    update:

    gave these guys a call and had a good 20 minute chat about the product

    http://www.ozishield.com.au/products.asp?cat=881

    they seem very knowledgeable about the product, have been doing it for a while and do quite a few repeat customer high end cars

    a little bit pricey, but i think it will be worth it, as ive copped quite a few stone chips, and this is only in a months worth of driving !

    Maybe a vinyl wrap would help?
