As I mentioned before, I’ve had issues with hail breaking my plastic front grills. After this last storm, which smashed them up pretty good, I decided to take my first steps toward some hail guards. Who knows, I might do something like this over all the vulnerable parts of the vehicle. Sounds like a fall/winter project.
