Full Front Bumper : 1
Full Hood : 2
Full Front Fenders : 2
Mirrors : 1
Side doors : 3 (really? side doors? helluva weird angle to get a chip on that)
Rear Quarter Panels : 1
Rocker Panels : 1

A-Pillars : 1
Partial Roof at front edge : 2

I was only thinking side doors for days when you have to park next to people because there isn't a "*good" parking spot left.

*good = As far away as possible from any other person, double parked diagonally.

The clear bra will only help here to possibly prevent the paint from being scraped off by someone opening a door on it, but not any dings or dents on our aluminum doors.

The full hood looks much cleaner than the partial. I have partial fendors and kind of wish i spent the extra money and got the full ones. I have all of the above and also a custom full roof. The bra's were the first thing I did to my Z and am so glad b/c after 1 year my body is still flawless (its my daily driver too). I +1 on the importance of the rear qtr panels. I already had a huge stone hit that area. I actually created a dent but because the bra material was there the paint did not chip and i was able to get the dent pullled out. I did have to replace that piece though because it created a small tear.
