Vinyl bra is much better.  Goes on and off in minutes.  I bet it would
deflect some substantial rocks--it is a padded bra!  I have the Colgan.

Subject:    Clear Vinyl Shield for V-Gon Front End


I don't know about the rest of the list membership, but the front of my
van has over time had the pooty pounded out of it by flying rocks. Chips
in the paint abound, most of which could have been prevented with some
sort of protective cover. There are a couple that are actually dents
from rocks, nothing would have stopped that.

There is a kit that may be available soon for application to the front
end of the Vanagon specifically, to protect the paint somewhat. It is a
heavy duty vinyl that came out on race cars sometime ago, and before
that was used on helicopter rotors I believe. Kit comes precut with
tools and instructions for installation.

Would like to know what the List Membership's interest would be in such
a pre-cut kit.

Please reply via P-mail
