I never really understood the whole masking tape thing. People took it to a WHOLE new level at Import Alliance this year in Nashville.

yeah i went up there with 4 other people. it was a good time. i didn't enter or anything just walked around for a bit. well all parked on the 2nd floor of the garage. my 06 evo, an 06 evo MR, and an 07 STi.

there was a badass R32 in the parking lot another floor up. the wheels on it were way too big, but the rest of the car was super clean.

and there was an 04 WRX with an 02 front end and a full STi drive train and STi gauge cluster. it was pretty badass.

Yes sir.

I mean, I have driven my car to Nashville on three occasions now along with all of the other driving to Chicago etc. and don't have a single blemish/chip on my entire front end. Maybe I'm just lucky or the fact that I don't have crap OEM paint. I know older Honda's and the original WRX's chip really bad. So I guess it could be a problem with certain paints.

my WRX was covered in rock chips... the evo is too for that matter.

yea i use that stuff religiously because they made scion paint EXTREMELY CHEAP! and my front lip gets ate up all the time. mine looks bad as it is and couldnt imagine how much worse it would be without the tape and i can't afford to pay 200 every 6 months or so to repaint it :-/. i think it has something to do with the type of paint and the prep work and what not. my dad just bought a 2010 mustang and it chips quite a bit but my old ford ranger never did
