Protecting The Paint Out In The Brush

[pdxkevin]

Here is one great idea. CustomFit Original Truck Shields

"Scratches and gouges caused by dense brush, undergrowth and gravel make your truck look bad and devalue your investment. With these innovative Truck Shields, you can now drive anywhere without worrying about what your truck's finish will look like when you get home. The flexible magnetic sheeting adheres to your vehicle without drilling or mounting hardware. Installs in minutes and is just as quickly removed. To apply, simply place pre-cut shields on the side panels of your vehicle, secure edges with color-matched tape (included for highway use) and the process is complete. The panels are custom tailored for your vehicle so cutting or fitting is not necessary. Shields won't interfere with doors or windows, allowing you to get in and out of your vehicle without hassle. These guards can be used on- or off-road. The camo version is great when you want to hide your vehicle from wary game. Panels roll up for easy storage."

If it holds up, it would really reduce the custom pin-stiping from the brush.

Nice idea...kinda a removable XPEL.......

But the camo.....

Not just camo... you can get it in wetlands, or shadow grass, or... went over to the manufac.'s site to see if you could get it in a solid and found over 30 varietys of patterns! Not only that - - - they sell matching window vinyl ! !

I think it could look great if you take your time picking out the right pattern and applying confidently. The hardest part will be convincing my wife that I need this.

Look's like it is even an authorized accessory you can order when you order your H2 ! ! !

bonus - they can order it in all white or all black.

Here is a great review, step-by-step application w/ photos.

The more I am learning about this the more I like about it. It is kinda like extended cladding - IMHO

And I thought my sage green Av was hard enough to find in the woods as it is.It must be a pain to keep the back side clean between uses. Looks like a lot of potential for scratches unless you are extremely careful. Lets see, $1666 for the digital plus $150 for the windows...

Would it be better/less expensive just to 'rhino-liner' the whole AV?
