Looks good fellas!!

i think the question was for DAILY driving (vs. long drives) how do you avoid rock chips from damaging the bumper

I don't know anymore, but doesn't Viet have 2 bumpers? One for show one for daily driving. Viet I think racks up a lot of miles and his ride is on the freeway more. I think Randy's is driven more in the city and his car has less freeway miles so it doesn't get the high speed rock chips.

Someone mentioned last night that he (Viet) puts up to 100 miles a day....I'll let Viet confirm that.

^ wow, that makes a lot of sense, seeing as his ride is always super clean & yet it is a daily driver.

my front bumper is rock-chips-galore, too. -___-;
anyone recommend 3M guard? or is that not a good idea?

Thanks for the pics Marcus!

Yeah I have 2 bumpers, the other one is at the shop waiting to get picked up. Even having 2 bumpers I hardly ever changed them really. Last year I used the same bumper daily and used it at most shows. I put the fresher one on before SEMA and used that one from SEMA up until color change.

Advantage of a spare bumper. This was a Lamborghini blue.


This was a House of Kolor Kandy blue next to the Lamborghini 2 stage paint.


Don't tail gate, keep a decent distance back from other cars and drive defensively. My commute is 100 miles minimum just to and from work, I have to run errands often.

Hope to see more people out at the meets.
