By either the missus and her high heels or the kids using them as a step up into the car or my work colleagues who scuff them.

Demon Tweeks do a sheet of clear film for this - used to have it on the rear wheel arches of my RS Turbo.
There is also companies in the back of Evo mag that will cover the vunerable areas of your car - they may sell you a roll.

Try doing a search for 3M, or companies that stock their products. 3M are a large producer of this kind of stuff.

I have the paint Shield kit on my car, just had it upgraded to full front kit. the whole bonnet is now covered, all the front wings,front bumper,sills. just above the STI stickers on the doors rear arches & rear spats.
They hope to have a full car kit out soon, took my car straight from the dealers so it only did about 5 miles without any protection on it.
Had the bonnet & wings re done a month ago as the bonnet film had done its job and protected it from some stones but had left marks in the film but at least the bonnet wasn't stone chipped. Since the car was done last may they now have a bigger film which allows the wings to be done in 1 piece & the bonnet all but about an inch from the top.
Looks a lot better as people used to think the bonnet & wings had scratches on them where the film finished.

Rig, out of interest, have you got mud flaps? Could it not be stones that have that have caused the chips? That's what I put mine down to.
