Have you determined 'how' you are getting rock chips that high up the front of the trailer? Even running down a gravel road, I can't see them getting that high?

I've taken mine down a few at about 30 mph and I heard a lot hitting the diamond plate and the frame. I never got any go above the plate however...

I don't know about using an undercoating.. I guess if you could get it in white, then it might not look too bad.. Might cause more drag however...

good luck with whatever you do! That would suck to have that happen! Mine is fiberglass, so maybe I'm just not seeing the damage where on aluminum, you would see every dent!
