Has anyone here used DigiShield to protect their goat? DigiShield is the invisible paint protection that keeps your car looking new longer and doesn't ruin your vehicle's styling. With DigiShield you will have a clear, tough, almost invisible protective urethane film working to protect your vehicle's covered surfaces from rocks, bugs, scratches and door dings.
If anyone has any experience with DigiShield, I would like to hear (read) about it. Also, what is a reasonable to have it installed? Thanks.

Mark likes his. Did you call B&M and get a price?
Dang! You have LT headers on order! I'm starting to turn green with envy!

I have not called to get a price. I am trying to figure out what else is out there and what people are paying. It seems there are similar competing protection systems available.
I will let you know when I receive the headers.

Are you talking about the clear plastic that covers the front, fenders, hood, bumper, and lights?
I briefly worked for a company called "Autobond" and it's a smart product, but not worth $500+ when you can just get your hood re painted! Also the wax sticks in it, I wish they had never put one on my camaro! I removed the hood one and it took off the paint so I had to get that re- painted! I Left the front bumper one on for now.

Thanks for the information. Perhaps it is not as good of an idea as I had once believed.

NOT a good idea. Might as well have a Rhino liner sprayed on it. I have just forced myself not to tailgate while driving the goat. (this is how most rock chips ocurr) Seems to be working so far. lol.

actually at 120+mph bugs seam to chip the paint too.I put the clear plastic on my car It was $400 to do the whole front .I did wax the car and yes the wax does tend to show at the seam but you can just wipe it off when its dry. it also goes on the mirrors. I like it so far . theres more than 1 company making it. 3m has the thickest film (5mil)but its also the hardest to install and i originally had that put on and didnt like it because the installer just couldnt get it right so they put on a different brand(3mil) which is much easier to install and was cheaper too.They said its just a durable as the 3m product. It does work because the front end has no chips but the headlights do show some spots where they have taken some damage.
