Tim brought in his awesome S2000 in for StonGard today. I had to warn him that the headlight protection was only tested to 160 mph, so once he gets that supercharger installed, he's supposed to call us so we can change the speed rating on the brochures!

How did you find someone who does it?

I've been looking for someone to Stongard my car, but I can't find anyone, and Stongard won't recommend anyone.

StonGard will only recommend factory trained installers. It takes practice to get the product to look its best, especially on the nose piece on the S2000. The install can take around 4 to 5 hours but plan to leave your car for most of the day. You 'll want them to take their time. After its done, it gets parked in the sun for a few hours to help the adhesive set.

Remember that the Nitrious is installed! I think I will by wings for the side next Maybe Mingster can fabricate some for me...hehehe. And I can have you guys Stongard them. By the way David great pictures!

Sparky as for all day it is well worth it. Never worry about a bra messing up the paint, never have to worry when you are about to exit off the highway and a rock comes smiling at you and you just laugh at it. The bugs don't stick and kill the paint.

Ok, I was always wondering about this, what if you want to Zaino the S2K, would you do it before you apply the StonGard? If you wash and wax your S2K, then would it mess up the StonGard? Hmm, that was always a question, because would you have to treat the paint underneath the protection?
