RS Grill - Stone Chips

[Jimbob 2705]

How badly does the top RS Grill (on a 1*2) get stone chipped?

I've got a carbon fibre dipped on, but unsure whether just to put it on for special occasions (such as shows/meets) or leave it no permanently...

Just wondering if anyones had any experiences with dipped or even sprayed grills, and how much abuse they get

Cheers!

Interested in this too. @Ceaglestone has had a dipped one on for a few months and I dont think his has chipped.

I had a sprayed one and after a couple of months it looked s**t with all the stonechips.

I ended up buying a new one from Renault.

Same, previous owner sprayed grills and fog surrounds.... They look terrible up close. Trim-restored bare plastic ftw

Damn , looks like it's gonna be for special occasions only

i had one dipped and 6 months ago and it is still perfect. The car is used daily. When I had it done they guy said to apply loads of wax to it which I did and a few layers of sealant. Not sure if it helps but there isn't a mark on it!

Would a dye work?
