The whole car eventually starts to show wear and tear from being a DD, and paint is expected to take a beating, might as well enjoy while you have it. Reminds me of people who buy a $5000 couch and cover it in a plastic wrap |

If it makes you feel any better, I have rock chips on the lower part of my Carrera S bumper cover right behind the rear wheels. My rockers are in good shape though. I am very careful where I drive, but the high performance tires pick up every bit of debris on the road and throw it at the car.

Exactly what I was going to say! Do all of you guys leave those little plastic shields that come on electronics on all the time too?

+10000000000 Its crazy...it really is..to each their own though. Like I said, those people are only helping someone who wants a used M3 in perfect shape, and on top of that, they can expect to get no more than 1k-2k more then a used M3 without all the clearbra (meanwhile they probably spent over 2k to full cover their car in the first place)

i took mine to a couple of track days and got my rockers chipped really badly on one side of the car when i went off the track slightly...kind of sucks but nothing much one can do. I rather enjoy the car then to keep it perfect in the garage at home.

I also have 1600 miles and my rockers look like they were shot with a gatling gun. It's just where the tires launch all the rocks
