protecting your evo from chips and scratches
I will be making a one time trip next week with the evo around 1,300 of highway driving.
getting the evo shipped is now out of the question. is there any way to keep the car's wonderful paint and headlights free of chips and scratches besides plentiful application of painters tape? is that even a good idea for such a long trip? |
painters tape all over the front end!
|
haha i thought about just caking it all over the front end, and am thinking painters tape on the headlights might make the night driving a bit more difficult...
haha what about saran wrap taped over the headlights? it could work |
Painters tape or 3M clear bra.
|
Maybe try some clear vinyl and tape it in place, with painters tape of course, to your headlights. Just go to walmart and buy a yard for cheap. That'll give you plenty.
|
I wonder if saran wrap would heat up?

black is by far the worst! |
Try this stuff:
http://duplicolor.com/products/shield.html Better than nothing and won't look as ugly as painter's tape, though I think the tape would give you better protection. |

im going to be making a similar trip myself this summer. i dont know what im gonna do either because i plan to get lots of photos along the way, especially since well be having two cars... rolling shots ftw
|
just do painters tape and maybe 3m tape on the headlights. I used to tape up my car for long trips but now I don't do it anymore because I always in the wee hours of the morning and no traffic = no chips
|
Clear bra!
