Default Paint Protection

A short time ago,I saw a link to a company that provides the clear tape for paint chip protection. Does anyone have a product that has worked for you? I have been told that the HD product does not provide adequate protection. Thanks in advance!!!

Read through these posts. You will see what has already been done by other owners............

Also, you might notice that this website does a search on key words in posts for advertising purposes. At the top of my viewing page is an ad for "paint protection film".

I have 3M clear film on my trike. I bought it from a former forum member who custom cut me panels for the front of my rear fenders, but he unfortunately has passed away last year.

Heres a link to another company who is selling it but as far as I know they dont have any panels for the front of the rear fenders >>> http://www.stickercity.com/home.php?cat=2482
