But why specifically protect it on the to a show? What about all the other times?

A few other options are a company called armourfend who specialise custom made clear protection films for front of cars or could even consider just contact a wrapping company and have your bumper, Bonnet and wings wrapped in clear film :happy2:

They also hold the water and the bonnet will start to rust
