Default 02 Z06 Rocker Damage

I have an Venture Shield clear bra on my 02 Z. The hood 1/4,full bumper,mirrors are covered. When I got the kit there was no mention of rocker protection. I was polishing by the rockers and noticed many pits from rocks(Mostly by the rear scoop) It's looking quite ugly. Can you tell me if you know about or have Venture protection in your C5 Z rockers.I'd rather stop the damage before it gets worse. Greg

I have had Cleartastic on there, for whatever it's worth. It's probably similar (or close enough) to what you're talking about with Venture Shield. The rockers get chewed up pretty badly and very easily. Wish I'd have put the protection on there when new.

The Cleartastic has gotten chewed up, which means it works. Thanks for the reminder, because I have a new set at home awaiting installation!

Update. Invisible patterns which is from Venture Shield does not make a pattern for the 02 Z06 rockers. Llumar does and will get it installed on the rockers this weekend.
