Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior Rock Guard - Invisible Automotive Paint Protection

Anyone have any comments on this product. http://www.rock-guard.com.

If this really works, I'm all over it, maybe get the entire car done, or at least all lower panels, bumpers, lights, ect.

I bet that would be expensive, but worth it.

if you have money and ur car is new i would def. get it..usually the shop that do tinting will do that too if you want..u might want to check around town and compare prices..clear 3M film, that's what they are..

Yeah only 3 days old and not sure what the cost is, any ideas?

~Iggy

dang thats nice! wish i had that b4 i got all those chips on my kit.

Any ideas of prices? Over $1000? under? more than 1K?, I have no clue, and would hate to be clueless when calling.

Ok this is the way to go. I'm getting it not matter what the cost , look here http://solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/_s.155/98905/_s.155/98920

Just talked to a guy who has a 1994 Supra with this stuff on it and it looks brand new and yet he has a long stone driveway, oh man got to have it.

damn 1000?? no way bro..a guy that offer to do my car said he'll do the hood and fron bumber for like 150 or 200..that's all you really need anyway..cuz majority of paint chip are at the front bumper, fender, and hood..but i would check around ur town it might be cheaper..

that's the exact same thing he offer to have done on my car when i got my window tinted on my previous car..

Well then I may want to do the entire car lol. Thanks for the price info, now I shouldn't get screwed then.

Just got three quotes back today. I'm going with this one.

I am looking at the Hood, Fender, Mirror and Bumper kits you see on XPEL's website for $489 installed.

The headlights I can do for $75. I believe there some small fog lights to go along with that.

Door Edge guards I can do for $35.

For $100 I can do some small pieces behind the front wheels where the sideskirt is and some small pieces behind the rear wheel. This is about as far as I would go with putting the film on the car. I think you would have great coverage with the above.

These kits will only fit the car if the Action Package is the same as the 2002-2003 Action Bumper. From the pictures you sent, it looks like it will fit.

I may ask for the car to be left overnight to spend some time on the install . It will be in the garage the entire time.

So we are looking at $699, but a 10 year guarantee follows that for no paint chips or scratches where this is applied. It's a done deal.

No keys for them, lol

The biggest problem with the 7th gen is the front bumper valence, and the bumper (below the actual hood). The fog lights do take a beating, but are alright and the headlights are alright. The back bumper area below and by the wheel also takes a huge amount of damage. The mirrors are not a problem or anything by the front wheels. For these areas the max should be $200. The hood add a hundred for the whole scoop assembly and $35 for the fogs max. Just my thought on it. I'm sure I could coat my whole Celica in clear vinyl for $300 if I wnated to and maybe I should go into my own business.

Yeah what a racket huh , and the one guy that does this is out of his home. 5 car garage and the works. Only 25 years of age.
