You can see it if you look closely, but otherwise you'd never know and it is brilliant to stop minor stone chips. I had the car resprayed after 20k miles and then got the armourfend stuck on and it looks perfect still and I am on 65K now.

I had the armourfend on my Elise (shame I sold mine after only 12k miles and got a Mazda RX8 instead!...stupid boy!), and the only problem I had was that when I polished it the edges showed up exactly where the plastic is...but probably worth putting up with this if it avoids stone chips... I am more worried about applying it myself. The kit is £90 but fitting is another £50..they recommend self fit and supply a kit for applying it including fluids so you can line up the plastic before it sticks.

Hmmm might wait and just put loads of polish on the bike !
