washing and waxing it with uv protectant polishes and waxes. keeping it out of the sun as much as possible. Also, hanging back from other cars to avoid rock chips.

Thats a lot of work, I do wash my car once a week but I need to leave it out in the sun when I am in school. Maybe later I will get a hood.

Mostly the UV protectant stuff is going to be the key. But avoiding the sun when possible is a good thing too.

Hood

Rock,
Will the hood only be CF or will you also have it in fiberglass. I just want the look and don't need the weight savings.
