Few people suggested me to get the 3M or Xpel clear protective film, What did you do with yours?
I elected to go without protection and keep the money for my next Camaro as it adds no value other than peace of mind. I instead invested 12 bucks in a bottle of code GD1 Hyper Blue touch up paint. Chips are going to happen, especially if you do a lot of highway driving but if you are cautious you can keep them to a minimum. I've learned to try my best to avoid door dings chips and scratches, but it's a car and you will never keep it perfect. Someone or something is bound to mess it up sooner or later, so don't sweat the small stuff and enjoy ! As for the fuel anything other than 87 octane is money down the toilet with the V6.

I never got the rock guards on my 5th gen LT and had quite a bit of pitting on my rockers and rear quarter panel. Lesson learned was Xpel and rock guards. I'm sure wider tires are worse.

Got PPF done with Xpel. Should have got it done in the first week of buying the car. I already got one rock chip near the front part of rear wheel.

Front Bumper + Hood + Rocker Panels + Mirrors+ Hallow space behind Door Handles + edges of the doors + Small area behind rear wheels = $1500

Also got little bit of paint correction and CQuartz 3.0 Ceramic coat

Got my ZL1 Addons rear diffuser and installed it. They have provided 2 bolts to drill and bolt them but would have been better if they provided another 2 long screws for replacement of OEM short screws that are already on the bumper
