WD-40

If able to get under the vehicle, a wipe down with WD-40 will protect any exposed parts. It does require regular use, but does the trick.

Very Professional

In my opinion your work is that of "professional". I think you have a chance to make and sell a few. Great work, clean, precise and good looking. Take a bow.

Excellent

Dubiously, a wise choice. White is so eye catching with the wheels and the black grill. Be safe and enjoy. See if you can keep it under 80 in normal everyday driving? Congratulations. Welcome.

Just the front

Don't waste your money by doing the whole car, just do the front and the hood. Placing a little piece in front and behind the rear wheel is enough for the rear.
