One of the big problems with the HD kit is the fact it only covers a part of the fenders leaving leading surfaces unprotected. Like over the outside edge, top & front of the fender. Nothing for the tank, or the fairing or front fender.
I know that pissed me off. I think they cut the pattern that way, so the average person could install it. If you start getting pieces that have to bend around corners and over humps etc. many people would get too frustrated trying to install it.
on edit, just thinking now of trikes I have seen without the film and all dinged up with chips. I would say 95% of the chips are on the lower fender and on the inside of where your passengers boots would rest.

Right after I installed the kit on mine I got a good long chip just about 3/4" outside of the film ! NOT a happy camper!
