Has anyone got experience of armourfend or Ziebart stone shield - expense & effectiveness ???? Is it worth having done ?

 

Gastro,

I have no idea about Ziebart Stone shield, but I will be getting my P1 fully armourfended, as I know a few others that have had it done and swear by it.. and judging by the look of their cars, its a definite must, as my P1 needs a respray on the front after only 3 months!

Rgds, Alex

 

Yes - have had it on RB5 for last 1.5 years -very good - all areas. Bonnet film has a couple of stones/boulders go through it but I am very happy. I am in London/kent if you want to see it. get it fitted at their site in Essex.

Hope this helps

 

any idea on cost ??? are there several places that do the 'fending procedure or is it a DIY thing ???

 

Gastro,

Use the search facility at the top of the page & search on general questions. Lots of old posts on Armourfend etc.

DIY sounds a nightmare - get it done by the pros.

Have you got a quote from Rum* for insurance?

 

You should also be able to order precut armourfend for your headlamps and foglights. It looks better than the plastic protectors. I believe prices are around £50 for the headlamps and £30 for the fogs. Mine is on order from Cheam Motors - call Jim Childs on 020 8394 2263 if your're interested.

At £739.40 for the lot a veritable bargain....

 

And thats without the lights, which I must admit I would perhaps be interested in

 

Bloody hell!

 

Are there armourfend 'agents' dotted around the country - or do you have to deliver your car en spec at one site ???

 

I'm having mine done at AF HQ, Fitting is extra!

I think they can send out the stuff to you direct for you to fit however they recommend a dust free cool enviroment.
