Without covering the whole car, what areas on a 10 EVO are the most succeptable to chips? What minimum area would you have protected?

 

Cheek and the hood! No worries for the big mouth tho LOL!

 

Front bumper, rocker panels, hood -- in that order IMO. Rocker panels even more so if you have wider tires and/or greater offset.

 

No need if you have OEM/rally armor mud flaps on

 

bumper, rocker panels, hood, fender?

 

Thanks everyone.

 

I put on the mudflaps, but had the front, side sills, and small area on the back door panels that stick out some. For me it worked out really well when using Hoosier A6's autocrossing and not getting chips on the car. I had around 5200 miles on it and 8 or 9 autocrosses when I just traded it with very little if any stone chips.

 

My local tint shop clear bra's under door handles for nail scratches, side mirrors, front bumper and fenders. It'll run me $700+. I'll pass for now, haha. As suggested, buy RA flaps. Good investment.

 

Oh yeah, good point had the mirrors done too... and that price sounds about like what I paid maybe just a tad less ... but not much
