A good detailing shop should be able to custom wrap the front of the roadster (front line of the hood opening forward ) to provide the protection. Another option is to use 3M Paint Defender system. I've applied it to the front and it it quite easy and looks very professional. A little piece of mind when putting all those mile on.

Thanks. I've already checked into both options. Talked to a few detail shops. Most don't want anything to do with custom paint and especially on fiberglass. Those that might be willing were talking crazy prices. North of $1K to start. I can do a lot of touch up for that.

The 3M Paint Defender system has been discontinued for over a year. Since the shelf life was only supposed to be one year, stock that's still being sold (and it is possible to still find it) is likely out of shelf life. Plus pretty mediocre reviews from what I've seen. Probably why it's not around any more. It's been talked about quite a bit on the other forum.
