I had it done on the 348 and Diablo and the only way you can notice if you get real close to the car and be shown it's there otherwise most people who are not looking for it don't know it's there. |

I have it on the front of my 348 Spyder. It is great ... no worry about stone chips. My car is a rare colour so it is a bit noticeable. |

I recently saw a red 360 with Stonguard and, believe me, you will be surprised at how good it looks. You had to know it was there to see it, and even then it was very hard to tell. |

Any comment on using it on red cars ??
I understand the key is in the installation. Probably the guys who complained to me tried to do it themselves and failed.
It sounds like it is worth the money.

I have Stongard on my cars, all of them are dark and the only way to see that it is on the car is at the hood end if it is porpoerly installed. When you wax, you will probably notice a bit of build up at the edge, simply remove with thumbnail or q-tip and it will disappear.

BTW, 6 years and no fading... |

Gene,
if I post a picture you can not tell because you can simply not see it!
DHutchison,
yes, that is actually my car. www.4Ferrari.com is my website. My dealership. I would consider selling my car for as long as I still have the Spider for sale.
David C,
I can guarantee you if you have it installed by one of their guys you will NOT SEE it. The only time you will see it is when water hits it. The stuff does not fade or discolor or losen on the edges or get grime under the edges etc. It is just great!
I have ordered my full kit because it contains a piece of the hood and the headlights I do not yet have and I do need the lower bumper (regular $ 118) since I f*cked that up a few months back and just had it re-done. |

I have been told that this type of product is very noticeable to the eye and looks " ugly ".
I know that Martin is particular about his cars so I find this a little shocking.
Does it really look OK - ( when professionally installed ) ? |

Martin - Is that your 348 ts for sale on 4FERRARI.com? It's a '91 with 38k miles, and stoneguard. |

Here is a link to Stongard, the company that manufactures a 3M product custom cut. They have a blow out sale for the 348 full kit. I am running this product on my car and am VERY pleased with the results. Have it professionally installed. Call Stongard for an installer near you.
Here is the link for the blow out:
