The lower lip spoiler comes with it on but no other areas.
I am just about to have strategic places on my P1 done in a protective film, I'll let you know the outcome.

Thumbs up

I've had Armourfend stone chip protection fitted to the following areas of my P1 since new.

Lower front lip spoiler, front bumper, front grill surround, bonnet, front wing ends, front wing sides & lower front wings, wing mirrors, side skirts & sill ends.

After 18K (mostly motorway) miles I don't have any stone chips in the protected areas

OK, you can see where some of the larger stones have hit the Armourfend, but it has not damaged the paint work underneath it.

Cheers,

Rob

Navigator,

This stuff is very expensive to you or I, put me off buying it. Unless of course Scoob99 is offering to tell us where we can get it for 10 quid. Or better still share some of his roll??.
