Default Can anyone help me thanks

Hey i am from toronto and recently moved out to calgary i was thinking of flying back and driving my s2k out to calgary i don't really care about the km i will be ripping apart the engine in the future and doing a turbo set up so what i do want to know is there a protective layer i can use to protect against stone chips?I have carbon fiber doors, fenders,hood and fiberglass j's front bumper that i want to protect

another thing is if anyone knows a good shipping company that is not to expensive i could ship my car out becasue the one guy i talked to wants $1900 i rather cruise down and enjoy the 3 day drive than pay that amount.

Tape is the way to go. Make sure it's the blue or green painters tape.
Leaves no residue.
After the trip, the front will be super dirty with bugs.
Rip off tape and reveal a clean front.

That's a clean tape job! Much better than Ken's. It almost looks painted blue.

I would 3m. I know it gets to be pricey but totally worth it. Calgary has a lot of little rocks that chip up front bumpers/hoods a lot, especially if you will be traveling the deerfoot a lot.
