Does anybody in the US sell these sorts of magnetic panels (pinstripe protection)

Bush panel barrier protection

The link above is to a Youtube video review of an Australian product. Watch around 6-1/2 minutes in to get a real feel for what it can do.

Video says he drove at 130kpm, which I think is about 80mph. The retention of the little strip in front of the rear wheel seems impressive (to me anyway).

Such an obvious idea that never occurred to me. I have a friend that does wraps and will suggest that he look into doing something similar.

You can have clear bra or from advertising companies custom graphic installed. The same stuff you see on vans around town.

Yes, but these are magnetic panels that you can take off/put on as you please, and quickly. I love the concept.

I was lucky enough to get the very first set in the USA on my 200. It’s a very robust product, way better than vinyl. It’s akin to a hard hat material. They can be painted too I believe.
ChiTown4X4 in IL had some in stock the last time I was there.

Sorry thought he was taping something. Didn't watch the whole video. Clear bra is still my preference. Don't have to worry about anything for years.

My ONLY concern is that dirt get in between your car steel and the panel...which then scratches your paint. Assuming the panel is super tight, then you want to make sure that your paint surface (and the panel backside) is SUPER clean before putting these things on.

Disclaimer: I have never used this, just watch the video...so, i am probably wrong.

the Rhino Hide? They are spaced off your panels just a hair to give that breathing room. Also gives a little clearance for some flex if the panel were to get hit with a stick or something.

A great idea to prevent door dings in the parking lot as well. I want a set!

To prevent pinstripes on the side of our 200 series, has anybody considered or tried these type of black magnetic sheets cut to size for the various metal fender, doors and rear quarter panels? Price wise certainly looks attractive.

I would probably only put them on a washed vehicle before an off-road trip and take them off for regular day to day urban use. Perhaps take them with me and plan for a car wash on the way to the trails.

Your thoughts?

I see they come in white as well and taller. Probably go black on a white cruiser however interesting product and getting more curious to try when perhaps next spring I go to Colorado (with most trails being quite wide so it seems )

P.S. Searching further a company like first4magnets maybe another good place to buy a big enough role for both sides of the vehicle. I see they even have red for those who want to stand out…
