Rock chips to front grille...
So I washed and waxed the H3 for the second time today and noticed that there was a couple chips on the front grille, probably from winter driving and the road sand. Is there anything they sell to protect the front grille at all? I will be purchasing a brush guard soon, but I don't think that will help in deflecting rocks all that much...
Any suggestions?

I don't know how good it is or if it's snake oil. BUT, they do sell an "invisible" guard. It's like a clear piece of plastic. I believe SmartShieldor Invisible Filmmight work

Interesting. I was just thinking about the 3m film. I saw it at the NY auto show a year or 2 ago and found it amazing. If it actually works is the key. For the frontgrille they quoted me $220 bucks installed. For some clear tape, seems a bit high to me...

The clear 3m vinyl works well...I installed it on my rear flares to keep rock chips away! I never thought about using it for my front grill....My plastic chrome grill has chips in it to.....The 3M stuff is REALLY expensive even to buy it wholesale. Actually it is insane pricing, but it does work. I have pre-made rear flare protectors made....wasn't sure if anybody would be interested in them though. Maybe I'll work on a grill piece to.
