Might be up for it - what sort of price are you looking at for a MY02 WRX wagon?

 

Harry, you would need to contact Armourfend to get an exact price but for example to protect a STi7 saloon, front bumper, leading edge of bonnet, scoop, grill sides, wing end/arch, mirrors, rear bumper top, side sills and fog light covers (Prodrive), before discount i have been quoted £360 +vat

Not trying to hijack your thread but.....

I've just bought a load of protection film from InvincaShield; it's exactly the same stuff as Armourfend (3M ScotchCal Paint Protection film) only it's a cheaper. Full front bumper, bonnet lip, wing ends and A pillars is about £100 (MY00). He's also doing wing mirrors and lower doors. It's self fit so might be a bit of a hassle but the guy assures me it's easy enough.

He's only just produced the MY00 front end; initially he only had the 1.6 front end so he's gone and measured up a turbo bumper. It's different from Armourfend in that it's in about 10 pieces as opposed the Armourfend one-piece. Thus, should you get a few nicks in it from stones you can just replace individual bits at about £10ish each as opposed to the whole front end (£100+ from Armourfend).

I've got the first set he's made for the MY00 and I'll be getting round to fitting it shortly; I'll let you know how I get on.

He hasn't done the new shape fugly yet so if you've got one of those then it's Armourfend for you.

Like I said, not attempting to hijack the thread or knock Armourfend, just letting folks know all the options

Edited to say I've got no connection with InvincaShield

Cheers Simon - I'd guess a similar price for the WRX wagon

 

Come on peeps, nobody else want to defeat the evil stone chips????

Matt

 

The battle has already been lost for some of us

 

I would but do not want to fit it myself as it is a lot of money if I mess it up. When I spoke to them last they had no mobile fitters in the North West so I did not go for it.

 

Is there anyway to see what this stuff looks like when it's on ?
Seems that you would end up with a ridge where the film ends.
How does this effect polishing etc..etc...

If I could see one beforehand to see exactly how it affects the looks then I'd be in too. STi7.

Cheers,
Chris

 

was that 360 +vat for materials only? Sounds steep? If that much for materials and fitting, note there is no discount on fitting.

 

£360 +vat included fitting (being done next tuesday), Total price for my car will be:- £135 for fitting, £75 travelling, £225 (less 10%) parts for STi7 saloon, front bumper, leading edge of bonnet, scoop, grill sides, wing end/arch, mirrors, rear bumper top, side sills, fog light covers (Prodrive), front lower lip and door handles, and vat to give £484.69inc

PCB, got a question for you - if we need 10 people for the 10% discount, how come you got the discount already???

Matt

I'll be booking it with them as soon as I have the car....

 

Matt, they already offer 10% discount to SIDC members.

simon

 

I'd b tempted if my paintwork weren't already feked So hardly worth it when it already looks like shyte unless they r guna throw in a full respray as a bonus?

If anyone is interested in the DIY approach and is prepaired to
co-ordinate the distribution of this stuff. I was offered a roll of 3M clear automotive film measuring 12 inch x 1000ft for £672.30 last year. Which must be enough to do 15-20 cars. If anyone is interested in finding out more send me an email and I will have a look for the contact details.

PCB,

Thanks for that m8 - I will be calling them shortly.

Also, has anyone got their web address as I can't find the UK site. I have a feeling they are in Hoddeston, Herts which is not that far from me.....

Matt

 

Matt, in my first post on this thread click "info".

Many thanks,

Matt
