I'm a daily driver (over 30k in 2 years), and amazingly, I don't have any stone chips that I can see. I'm also exposed to some of the nastiest bugs in the nation (the luv bug, plus others). So your product will get a good hard road test, if we work something out. I'll be doing more track days as well.

I'm a registered professional engineer and technical writer, so I'll give you good feed back documents, plus help you improve your product.

A lot of folks see my car, ask my advice, etc., so I'll help sell you a few kits too, if the quality is as advertized.

PM me, and I'll call later today too.

I have a '13 GS with about 100 miles on the clock. Now would be the perfect time if you still have slots available.

Awesome responses. Thanks

I'll be out today & tomorrow so Monday we will going over everything.

Cleartastic is a clear paint protection film that is invisible once applied. The kits are designed /pre cut so anyone, (not a professional) can apply it!
The film is tough and creates a barrier between your delicate paint and rocks. This film is also stain resistant!

Absolutely not the spray
It protects the full face of the nose and the entire lower region. I'll get a picture up eventually.

Yes. you can remove it. Leaves no residue. One time application provides years and years of protection.

This kit is for a Z06/GS nose. so it won't fit our nose. Remember, if you have our nose, then its the same standard C6 nose (same grille, fog lights as the C6) just with a Z06 scoop/vent. The Z06/GS nose is different. The grille opening is bigger

Your nose:http://store.tkoperformance.com/c6buwiz06sts.html


HOWEVER! we do have a kit for the Standard C6 nose. http://store.tkoperformance.com/clplfrnoprki.html

Same nose as the Z06 & GS so your good ta go.



Thank you all. I'll be going over this all real soon!

I've got two rock chips on my 11 GS already so I could definitely use some protection. I've applied the side/rocker cleartastic protective film kit on my car already so I am familiar with how to do it.

Lets give it a try in the rain of the Pacific Northwest! Tried the 3M spray Paint Defender, with mixed results..

I emailed you over a month ago about a nose protection kit for the GS, I'd like to try it now that its done..will do a 2000 mile road test through the Canadian Rockies in August!

We are good. Going through the emails, posts...now.

I went over and tweaked the instructions. I think these will make the install a breeze.

I'll have this out soon. Thank you all.

Great to see everyone is interested. For what its worth, when I tested the upper piece on a cyber grey GS 2 weeks ago.... It took me 10-15 minutes to put it on.
The best part was, even though the customer new this was a trail test piece he said "Leave it, I can't even see it.. "


The test kit we will be sending out will be even better because it will be an actual kit we will be selling.

Thanks so much for all your help, We will try to get back in touch with everyone
