Is anyone else experiencing a lot of rock chips on the front?

I put mine on the day after I took delivery (preordered) and don't regret having it
It really does provide great protection from rocks and also bug juices.I still cringe when I hear something bounce off the front of the car but so far (2 years) no damage. It really isn't that noticeable.

I've also seen them turn yellow on white cars .. but what you said is the exact reason why
I chose against clear bra.... dirt collects along the edges and it's very very noticeable that the clear bra is on the car. I would do full panels or nothing and at that point it's to expensive and not good looking.

MB - Where did you get your tint done?
I'm lookin at Tint World in Boca, Tint America in Boynton, or Champion. All similar in price, and I can't decide where to go. Llumar, it seems, is the norm, even though I listen to AM radio a lot. I asked about ceramic but I'm not about to spend $500 on tint.
Also, is computer cut or razor cut better on the A4? Also, I'd like to go pretty dark.

hmmm
First of all what is computer cut? I know they cut mine with a razor, I had never heard of computer cut. I went to Florida Energy Savers which is where Gunter VW recommends. It's off 595 and 441. Pretty far for you... not to mention I wouldn't recommend the place because they all smoke cigarettes there.
My friend had his Z tinted in Boca off Boca Raton Blvd. North of Glades. Don't remember the name off hand, but they did a very nice job.
Yeah I have Llumar Metal and it certainly decreases AM Reception, however FM is still fine. Neither was a concern for me as I don't use the radio at all. My radar detector still has great rear detection even with the tint.
Mine was $149 for the tint in 20% matte black finish and that included the tint strip I had put on the front windshield. I sort of wish I went with 15%, but too late now.
