Pin stripes, vinyls, and PAINT PROTECTION FILM - SA, Austin, San Marcos, NB, etc...

http://www.auto-morphosis.com/Home_Page.php

This is the guy that Jacks' paint place contracts their stripe work too. I just checked out his website, and apparently he has auto film available as well to protect all the front facing parts of the car from rocks and chips, etc.

I think I might go that route this time around considering all the shape of the car. It's prime real-estate for rock chips...especially on these Texas highways. I'd hate to pay top dollar for painted stripes only to have them ruined a week later.

Does anyone else have experience with this stuff? I would think it would eliminate the need for waxing or polishing in those spots as well....no?

In theory, when the 3m stuff is on...you're not supposed to be able to even see it. I had an associate that had it on his 350z, and you couldn't tell it was there. Another buddy had it on his Evo 9...same thing. I don't keep in touch with them anymore...

Just wanted to throw this out there for anyone in the area looking for such a thing. This is the guy that will be doing the stripes on the car as well more than likely. Unless I find someone better and cheaper!
