Clean them obsessively. They will leave a mark if there is any dirt at all---it's like having a bit of sandpaper under there. Happily, if it isn't too bad, it will polish up OK with some swirl remover or light rubbing compound and some elbow grease.

before you put the seat on, try putting a heavy coat of wax wear the cups sit, but don't wipe it off until you take the seat off. this works for me.

They have some clear stuff you can put on your gas tank and rear fender to keep scratches at bay. For guys with the passenger cushion, forgot what ya call it, this would be great. No scratches on the paint. They also have some of this clear stuff to put around your gas cap. What I want know, is , is it permanent, and if you decide to remove it, what kind of problems will that be? And, LDO, I'm not sure what "rep" means, but mine is ZERO, and I'm tired of that shit!!!! At least give me a "1".



It's often called a "Clear Bra". I've used it on the nose of my Ferrari and Lamborghini and it works well. Find someone in your area that does cars and have them do the area you want to cover. I would not reccomend doing it yourself.

My experience is 3M is the best tape. The thinner, the less noticable. Comes in 1ml 3ml and 5ml. Regarding removing it, I have my entire nose covered and on the bottom where I bottom out and a hard bump the corners peel and it can lift the paint. However, if you want to pull it - using a heat gun and slow peel will remove it.
