Anyone used VEIL on their Boxsters?

Back in my younger days I did a pretty job of accumulating speeding tickets, but have not gotten one for 20 years not. Since I got the Boxster last year, I can smell a change in the wind. I dont speed that much with the car, but enough that I certainally could have gotten nabbed in the last six months.

So I have been researching radar detectors. It looks like the Belltronics STI Driver is the detector for me because it cannot be detected by police radar and detectors are illegal in Virginia where I live. I checked with the state police and if caught with one, there are no points, and there is a 96.00 fine.

Many folks also recommend a stealth paint that is put on a license plate cover and, gasp, the headlights. It is a product called VEIL that functions to scatter laser light and make the car harder to target. That way you have a few more seconds to respond to the radar detector warning.

VEIL is painted onto the headlights and dries to a clear, somewhat darkened finish, so I am told. Has anyone done this, or do they have any experience with it? I just know what I have been reading on the web about it http://www.radarbusters.com/products/coatings/veil.asp, thanks,

Ed
