Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

12 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1Original post

There are three options AFAIK 1) Incero supply a clear plastic paint that lasts a few trackdays before coming off - google incero if need be, or there may even have been a banner ad on PH somewhere 2) You can get some 3M stone guard plastic film, which is permanent (there is a brand name but I can't remember it at the moment) but has to be cut perfectly and properly applied without bubbles etc. This is more expensive 3) Make sure you are always the car in front

POST 3Original post

Hi, SNAP! i just got my new black GT3 last week! Anyway my car is at my local Porsche body shop having Amorfend fitted to the front and sides of the car. I have been told it looks a bit rubbish but should stop all stone chips. It can be taken off with a hair drier when you come to sell, and should make the car look as good as new. As for the cost, well i have opted for the whole kit which is costing about £600 plus fitting is around £300. I will let you know how it looks after it's done in the morning. Scott

POST 4Original post

www.incero.com for the paint-on, peel-off stuff. I tried to get some for a track day last month, but ran out of time so can't give a first hand report. They say the £40 container is enough for 2 treatments to the front end of a Porsche - The guy I spoke to at Incero runs a 993 and tests the products on it and (of course) claims it works very effectively. Sound ideal if you just want occasional protection on trackdays, but Armourfend is the answer if you want something more permanent.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks guys. Have ordered some incerno so will let you know how it goes....

POST 6Original post

Please do let us know how it goes. I've been thinking about this stuff for a while The best prevention is simply not to get close to any car in front, if yoiu are held up do not tailgate , just drop back and find a clear bit of track

POST 7Original post

Only just seen this thread... Also checkout colgan 'car bras' buy online here >> www.type-911.co.uk/ac_carprot.htm (just ordered one for 996 tt)

POST 8Original post

Steve - I trust you will remove the colgan bra when driving your tt in daylight hours Almost as ugerlee an invention as the Cayenne

POST 9Original post

Waste of time on a TT,,,the descrption proudly claims they have been tested to 140mph. The car behind doesn't need that flying off the front of a TT on a Bruntingthorpe run.

POST 10Original post

I've got a black 964RS which was reasonably unblemished last August but now showing usual wear and tear of tracking. I think you just have to be philosophical about it, unless you keep the car in the garage all the time, its going to happen. I've also got a 996 daily driver which collects the usual parking dings on its doors, plus the resurface road chippings, just one of the pains to go with the pleasure

POST 12 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi All I have my first track day in my new GT3 in a couple of weeks...(I paid list price from the OPC)....And wanted to know if anyone new of a good way of protecting the paint from stonechips??? The car is black so they are going to show up badly... I had some Pirelli Corsa's fitted and they look great... Cheers Sean
