I need to repaint the entire front fascia, but I'm holding back until I cant figure a way to prevent the lower bumper from getting all beat up on driveways etc. Anyone got ideas? Solutions?

Somewhere I saw these little caster wheels for c4 vettes but cant locate them now.

 

haha i have the same problem... i've just figured out where i can and can't drive... doesn't help that mins lowered also. I think the key is to just recognize where the problem places are to drive and try to take it easy driving over them... nothin much else to do.

 

oops...here is a granatelli one for a c5

 

that won;t work on the camaro. those look like the are on the frame so it lifts the car. a set of those on a plastic nose will just push the nose up and crakc stuff, you think a scuff looks bad that would do some real damage.

now if you could support them with the body/ frame somehow you may be on to something. but not on the nose directly.

the tech at my local dodge dealer says 3M has this new clear tape that u apply up under your spoilers that prevents scratching and peeling... so i would check out their website...

 

3M huh? Theres an idea. Thanks. I'll look into it.

Yeah....think you're right about a sturdy attachment for casters. Oh well...

 

actually...just reading about how to mount these these in the installation pdf for vettes: they mount to the radiator support arms. Maybe something like this isn't that hard after all.

 

The other body guy at my work just did a vette frame rail. If i remmber. Them ski things just bolted right to the frame rail. And there not meant to prevent damge to the bumper. There for the core support and rad.I don't think they would work on a camaro or firebird. The front gfx sticks out to far away from the rails. U could make something up.But would look kinda weird with to ski things hanging down.

 

my friend put the 3m tape on his maxima and you can barely see it unless your right on top of it.
