What is the best way to take care of the problem of rocks and bugs hitting the fronts of our cars? Ive done my research on these forums. I just wanted to see what the general consensus is. If you choose "Other" please specify any other techniques used.
Thanks!

 

Anyone care to comment?

 

The Front End Mask protects the bottom of the bumper from scrapes..

 

Bump!

 

I'd guess the front end mask is probably the best since it covers up your front. I don't care for the look though.

 

A mask/bra causes scratches on the paint if left on for an extended period of time. the clear is a better solution, but I am leary of taking it off to apply a new one. In theory they last forever, but in my experience, they need replaced after about 3 -4 years. that's with washing and waxing on a regular basis.

 

touch up paint

 

Change lanes often, hince avoiding all pebbles and insect in your path

 

^ you make it sound fool proof changing lanes to avoid pebbles. I think the best way to avoid it is.... avoiding driving behind 18 wheelers.

 

^^^ I was joking............... but ******* 18 wheelers or any car with higher ground clearance than my stock ride its my philosopy.

Especially the mudd guards on trucks that move around alot, they are trying to dodge its own rocks.

But usually rocks get my windshield, not the bumper

 

How many rock chips do you have with that philosophy?

 

man i have about 3 pretty bad ones on my front end...one in my hood, its down to bare betal, two on the bumper down to metal, and one on the drivers side fender....

but what do ya do, its the one car i have...can't baby it forever

 

Have two big chips on the hood...I use the front end mask now.
