PROTECTING your Front Fascia
Ok so here goes.... a couple weeks back a lady hit me in my front fascia. No big deal, she cut a check for me to get it fixed. When I took it to my body guy, he basically had to redo my whole bumper. He sanded it all down, and repainted it. But the shocker is...
MOST of the imperfections in the bumper had nothing to do with getting hit. I already needed some work on it because of a lot of very small dings and very small scratches from road debris.
Obviously now, it looks perfect, but I want to protect it from getting like it got before. I don't want to put a bra on it, are there any other viable options?

i was going to mention that clear film, but i was beaten to it 
that stuff stopped a shot from an air pistol (a lot stronger than i thought it was). i was thinking there was a spray protectant too, but i can't remember the name of it.

just get one of these. can't think of a better way to protect your front.
lol, but seriously, just get some clear bra. over at chicane, there's a blue saleen 05, he's got clear bra and his bumper looks amazing, for an 05, and he drives it everyday. he also got a custom piece of clear bra put over his banner so it keeps that nice and safe and it's still reflective.
