Front End Rock/Bug Protection?

Is anyone putting any type of paint protectant (Clear Bra) type material on the front painted sections of your trucks????

The King Ranches with painted bumpers seem prone to chipping due to rocks/bugs, etc.

I had a clear bra on my 2004 and wasn't that impressed. Just curious what else may be available or recommended from others on FTE.

Thanks in advance,


Paul

I am wondering if the headlight lenses are going get beat up too. I saw a rock guard material for the headlight lenses for $69.95. Anyone tried that too?

I've got a 3m type material on the nose, wheel wells, and about 16 inches up the sides from the bottom. So far, very impressed. I think it is called Invisishield.
My only rock chip is in the windshield....

I think the lenses are pretty "bullet proof". The chrome is also tough. The paint on the other hand is a different story.
