It's definitely not a good idea to install these on body panels that have existing stone chips. I would rather wait to do it on a freshly painted parts.

Definitely not a DIY job unless you don't give a damn how it looks.

Unfortunately my car was borderline. The hood, upper bumper and lights are all in very very good condition so it was worth covering. The lower air dam had more chips than I realized. I'm planning to keep the car off the roads in the winter, but the puget sound area seems to have some rocks all year round, especially with non-stop road works.

Anyway, it's on there, and it should look pretty decent once the bubbles work their way out. I've also got a syringe for any stubborn ones.
