Hey guys, sorry to resurrect this thread after a few months, but I find myself in a similar situation to the OP. My car is only two months old and already has several small chips on the front of the hood. I also do not drive on gravel roads and I'm disappointed with how these chips look. What is the consensus on protecting the hood and front bumper from chips? Invisishield, polyurethane clear coat (put on at a local paint shop) or something else?

Guys, I've decided to get the clear bra installed on my car. I think I'm going to do the entire hood. The chips are out of control.
