I did a bit of search but couldn't find anything specific - has anyone bought one of those protectors for the front of vans for when travelling? Looking at the front of our van its looking a little rough these days. While the Stone Stomer can protect a certain amount, I'm think maybe a full cover on the next one. The one below is from the 'dodgy ads' thread but shows what I mean.

I found a mob in Qld who can make them, (and lots in England, but not much help to me that far north.)

@straydingo do you run a stonestomper? There very good and also protect rear screen which that still won't. Only place stil cops it with our stonestomper is a strip just up high in each side. Iam convinced if I got the front mint of made a tad wider it would fix this. Speak with @Stone Stomper

I like that. What I experienced on an outback trip and this would prevent it is the bug guts splashed all over the front of the van. Some of it was difficult to remove after a 2 week trip and then not being able to clean the van around another 2 weeks after getting home.
Like a car bra for your van

From ones for trucks and things you do need one to be fitted not a generic type job as a firm fit is needed or movement just gives wear marks instead of stone chips and they look worse.
Once I fitted my Rock Guard to the Tardis I only copped an occasional chip to the front.
