    Stops the scuffs and scratches from the line guys.
    Pros

    Goes on quick and easy to prevent scratches from the line guys tugging poles. Fits perfectly.

    Cons

    Overall a nice fitting product but I would have liked to see it made of a thicker material.

    General Comments

    Does a good job of preventing damage to your nose wheel pant. It sure beats having to have it repainted from all the scuffs and scratches the line guys put in the paint as they maneuver your plane into the hangar.

    Was not sure when I ordered this product that it would fit the large front wheel paint of my Archer III. It fits like a glove. Sorry I didn't order one sooner.

    Pricy for what you get. Had hole punched in pant from FBO tow bar. Needs more padding on top and a long "remove before flight" streamer would be nice.

    Just painted the nose wheel pant and it will definitely help keep chips from occurring. I have only had it for a month, so I cannot accurately predict how this item will hold up. As of right now, it is doing as instructed!

    Cons

    Strap attached to cover that goes underneath of the wheel pant may wear off paint after several uses.

    Perfect fit for my 2003 182T. It covers the wheel pant perfectly while not covering up the screws used to tug. The rubber band is just the right length and strength to help it stay on even on windy days.

    Cons

    Should have the option to personalize with the aircraft "N" number.

    No beeper to remind you to remove it. You might want to order a spare. Someone in the Northwest has my first one.

    With a beautiful (and expensive) new paint job, accidental scratching from tow bars was a real concern. This has been a great solution.

    I talked with a lineman to see if he had a problem with my using it, and he said he actually preferred for the nosewheel pant to be protected.

    The cover will get dirty over time but I'm not sure how "washable" it will be as it has a foam backing to hold it in position on the wheel pant.
