Ok I assume its not just me but approx 1200 miles on the car and the underside of the sills are getting rashed! Looks like tons of stone chips behind the front wheels and a little in front of the rears. Can you protect them at all or just figure in a respray as maintenance when they get real bad? Will the 3M stuff work on the sills with so much heat on them?

I've seen the 3M film sold as sheets. I was going to get it but I decided against Kumhos. If I find the link I'll post it.

Go to http://www.eastwoodco.com/ they have it. It comes in a three inch wide roll. It goes on easy. I ran Kumho's all summer and it has totally protected the wheel wells and under side to the rear of the sills. I put it on the back figuring the front wouldn't need it - what a mistake and what a a difference.

I tried to brighten pic so you can see, but since I put on the side sill plates ( in black ) I have no had any chips so far. Just a thought! ;) [image]http://vca2.viperclub.org/gallery/data/504/299Dsc00677_bright-med.jpg?6801[/image]
