Gill area protection

The "gill" areas of my car are taking a beating. Has anyone offered up a kit specifically made to protect this area?
Thanks

Really??? Why in the world would you do that? It's a Camaro not a truck. The paint protection film route is the way to go and would not ruin the look of your car. Plus Rhino liner is permanent. I would never buy a used car with that on there.

Mudflaps. Got the gm parts direct ones and I have not gotten a chip in 3900 miles. Had 2 chips with in 20o miles. Clear bra is a good idea also.
