contact paper sometimes works but you would have to take it off to take out screws, or screw in,etc

buy a piece of lexon that your would make wings or "spoilers" out of and somehow get it to stay under the chassis so that plastic is only getting messed up. [8D]

Iv heard that if you get some laminating film and stick it on the bottom of the chassis, it will stop it from getting scraped. it has to be changed every now and again.
