Have no idea, though I do remember seeing computer cut kits available on
ebay (US), if I get a chance a bit later I'll see what I can find for you.

There are some on ebay, though not made of 3m urethane.

These ones are:http://www.thedingcompany.com/shop/search.asp

If you google 3m car bra etc you will find plenty to look at I'm sure
Here is a local product:

roughly how much is 3m gonna cost me ? any ideas?
I just got a quote of that guy to do an 07 triton and it was $550 incl GST so you could guess around $500 I think.

That covers front bumper 30-40cm of bonnet and guards and headlights and front of wheel arch.

Some car wash places will do paint protection. Some window tinting places also do the clear car bras.

I guess the main thing is to find somebody who is experience with putting them on.

Car wash paint protection would just be a wax coat wouldn't it?

Here's another product that you want to consider.
Just paint on, peel off when you want.
No experience at all with it though.

The first time I tried the Honda touch up and it was slightly darker but that's because i didn't shake the bottle vigourously for a few good minutes.

The second application, i shook & shook & shook the bottle and applied it with a toothpick by letting the paint drip/slide from the toothpick into the stonechip crevice then let it set & buff it back a few days later and it came out nice.

For a really professional looking job, you have to do a little bit of prep work where the chips are.
