CF wrap bonnet 2 cover & prevent rock chip, what do u th

[RAwannabe]

As some of you might know I got rock chip on my bonnet from the NSW meet. I hated it on a brand new black car, those little white spots it's so obvious.
I am thinking of getting a CF wrap to wrap the whole bonnet to prevent more chip and cover up the old ones. what do you guys think?
also anyone know the exact size of the bonnet?

There is a chance that rocks will still penetrate the CF film.

An alternative is a special clear film which is almost invisible. I have it on the front of my bonnet and headlights and it works great.

I wish I had of done my bumper too now

When i got some vinyl applied at the bottom of my front bumper at signarama,it has that clear film that shane has stated,supposed to stop the stone chips. And it is pretty much invisible.

When I get home today I will give you the sizes needed.
You can purchase the size you need from myself.
I wrapped my bonnet and the top of the bumper bar for the very same reason you have in mind.
It has been on for about 6months now and no signs at all from stone chip damage or scratches. However, the surounding paint work has received extra unwelcome stone chips since the vinyl went on so it must be doing something right!

I only have this car for 3 months, but i guess u r right, maybe i should wait for a few more stone chips then wouldn't give a damn from then on, like all my old cars, you try your best to look after it for the first few months.

If I have the coins i would definitely get a CF evo bonnet, but I don't have that much.

i went to see the guy at signarama here in helensvale, goldcoast and he mentioned there might be a heat issue both from underneath the bonnet and from on top due to sunlight obviously. He said he cant guarantee how long it will last and due to the heat it can come up in little faded with patches. So i asked him if it was removable after a couple of years if i noticed the patches and he said they are a lot of trouble to take off.

basically i got the impression that it would be a permanent change to my car and i dont know how long it will last. so it threw me completely off the idea of cf vinyl on my bonnet.

i put them on but couple days later start to see bubles around the corners. so I took it off, from then on I just use touch up paint for all the chips, then polish it.

Lol my 2008 ES got so many chips that I don't give a damn anymore. You'll get there Andrew LOL

Recently I got a nasty one from the Melb - Syd trip which really bugs me as I could hear the bloody rock hit my car but unsure where til this morning when I washed my car. I was like @*$^@*%&(*^%& cause still love her a lot even though she's old!!!! But I got over it quickly

lol i know coolwave, i am getting there, I usually are very anal for the first year then couldn't give a damn ab it after, my daily used to be my love, but now i just park it anywhere and don't care about it, yesterday a tree branch dropped on it and make 2 big dent on the roof, I was like "well just another one, no one would notice it since it's got so many already." it blend straight in.
