I am about to do some touchup painting. Is this plastic rock guard still available?

I have not seen them, but 3M makes a clear bra material you could cut to fit.

Thanks.

I am going to email Xpel.

See if they will make one. I have nothing to trace and frankly dont want to spend the time on it.

I’ve never seen them either. Good luck!

They used to make those in chrome as well.

I would like like to find the chrome ones as well.

Chrome would be good. The plastic ones my truck came with looked terrible before I removed.

My 87 in that area is beat to **** with rock damage.

The chrome ones would look cool. That was going to be my backup plan.

Those chrome ones make good water traps to help promote rust. Same with the chrome covers for the nose of a hood.

It wont be driven in the rain much. Its just a practice restoration project

I wouldn’t bother with contacting Xpel directly, they just make the product and sell it in rolls to installers. The authorized installers have computer controlled patterns they cut on site but that’s for the common stuff. Entire front end of an Audi Q5? Yep, point-click-done. Anything non-standard like what you’re looking for is done free hand on the vehicle.

Xpel is pretty good stuff. It has self-healing properties that allow minor scratches and nicks to disappear when exposed to the sun. Bigger rocks that cut all the way through will cause damage that cant cure itself though. My daily driver caught a rock about the size of a marble while going 85 mph. It made a 1/8” nick in the Xpel but left no damage on the vehicle.

Yeah I have it on the painted bumpers on my Ford Platinum truck.

Hmmm, I always thought that was a spray on undercoat like material of some kind.
