paint chips with rust.... ugh!
« on: July 18, 2009, 05:48:39 PM »
I have had it with Deerfoot! I have so many rock chips on the body of my brand new wrangler.  My hardtop even has scars from the damn Deerfoot  If my top was off it would have knocked someone out. >:(  Does anyone else experience this?? (or is it just Murphy's law that when one buys a brand new car it will attract all rocks from other car tires?)
Anyway, I was wondering how to repair these cuz sooner or later it will just look like a brand new rust bucket on wheels if I keep leaving it the way it is.
Thank you!

My windsheild has had the same fun problems on deerfoot in my new wrangler too.  I had a wheel nut come off a semi and hit the edge of the windshield/frame and cracked the windsheild to hell and the frame around it and off to the body shop it went after owning it for a few weeks.  The worst part is watching the wonderful large items coming at your windsheild and it seems like slow motion.
In the last 2 years I have had 4 windsheilds and pretty much all of the good damage came off of deerfoot.
But I think its just part of driving a jeep and living in Calgary, the city that puts down gravel as sand. 
Just always have to look for a good place to get a windsheild.  I managed to find somewhere that was only $260 installed.  Some of my quotes ranged upto $600
