m sport protection
 

I have my new 2011 m sport about 2 weeks now and i have noticed that the painted rocker panels (previously just black plastic) are going to be taking a beating. I already have a few nicks from debris that has kicked up on them. What have you guys done to help protect this? Mud flaps, i hate the look, or what about a film kit?

Check this thread.

3M is your friend - get it covered as soon as possible!

Cheers,

Wow - that was alot of reading, and i am somewhat disappointed in the outcome. I went with the M package because i didnt want black again(last 4 cars are BS) however the non M with out black,i dont love the black contrast in the plastic. I guess i should install this kit, is anyone happy with the kit? Should come standard on the m sport, not an accessory.

Rez - What did you do? we are virtually in the same climate. Yeah we get snow but nothing on a regular basis. I am always on paved roads and i was suprised to see some chunks of paint already missing on the rocker.
