Paintwork Protection Kits
Discussion
I have the Armourfend kit on the nose & sills of my S1 too. Even though I fitted my own viper stripes I wouldn't attempt the armourfend kit, especially the nose section which is one bit.
Had mine on for about 16 months now & still don't think I have any blemishes at all, so very effective. Had a car in front throw up an old coke can a couple of months back which I couldn't avoid, hit the front clam with a pretty big bang, stopped got out & found no evidence at all. Well worth the £500....

I agree guys,
Very impressed with Armourfend - Full kit, factory fitted from new, but looks like it would be a total nightmare to DIY fit! I had enough problem covering my school books in sticky backed plastic as a kid!
Anyway, 30 odd thousand miles later and not a blemish in sight. Some say it yellows with age, but that's a bit hard to tell on my motor!
There are some very small areas, on the lower corners of the front clam, where the Armourfend doesn't quite reach - covered in stone chips! I guess that's how the whole leading edge of my front clam would look without the Arourfend! Would definitely spec any new car with the stuff.
By the way. I would also agree with fitting to new or resprayed cars only as chips tend to tap air beneath the film and look horrible.
When applied to a new car, you can bearly see it.
