H3 Magnetic Paint Protectors?

[Wu Jen]

Hi guys, does anyone know if they make the magnetic side protectors for the H3 like they do the H2? If so can you post a link? Thanks.

I'm going to run Morris mountain for the Shamrock run and was wanting something to protect the paint from thrown rocks.

How well do the magnetic protectors work? Is there a better solution? I was thinking of just going to a magnetic sign company with the dimensions for the doors and sides of the H3 and having a set custom made, (if a commercial one wasn't available.)

Thanks guys for the input in advance!

No. The ones for the H2 aren't even being made anymore. Best bet is to buy a roll of magnetic sheeting and make your own.

The problem with the H3 is that the painted fenders are not metal, so how are magnets suppose to stay on?

Most I've seen just tape up the fenders.

Go with a roll of 24' x 50', medium 1/32" color of your choice. Cut to fit. I did red on my Victory red H3, looked great, worked great, time consuming to cut, but worth it. Use 2" & 3" blue painters tape to cover fenders.
I got back friday from a BRUTAL one way 6 hour 3.5 + trail, got to the end, and the river was running 2 fast to cross. 6 hours back the other way in the dark. I DID NOT USE MY MAGNETS, IT COST ME $260.00 TO HAVE THE TRUCK DETAILED TO GET OUT ALL THE PINSTRIPING. i THOUGHT I NEEDED A REPAINT. THE DETAIL PLACE DID THE TRUCK 4 TIMES TO GET RID OF ALL SCRATCHES. Prior to this, i went on a run with magnets on a really brushy trail, and no damage at all. Do the magnets, and take your time. Make sure your truck is CLEAN before you start. Have fun. I did.
Use the H3 for what it was built 4, it will suprise you how durable it is.
I am not scared to beat the crap out of mine. I feel it is better than my D90, and my built Scout 11. Come midnight when your'e fried from wheeling for 12 hours +. the comfort of that truck pays dividens/
It made me laugh when I got the truck back from detailing, and there were still cactus spikes sticking out of the Toyo's.
