Default Bonnet Protection from stone chips

Does anyone know where I can get one from I want the type that can be removed not a permanent one, so I can stop the bloody stone chips on the front of my car

its for a 1997 mk6 Escort

Cheers for any info

Steve

Cheers for the reply Andy

What I am trying to find is something called a bonnet glove had a phone number but doesnt work and my car is going in for a spray job on the front end to get rid of the sodding stone chips

Not keen on the stick on stuff as I what to be able to take the bonnet protector off at shows

But if I stop tailgating I loose the slip stream and the advantage

TBH I never tailgate mate as I done want to run into the back of some coont

As for my front bumper tho that has loads in it and thats why I thought about getting one of these bonnet bra's
