Everyone will probably just suggest what they have, but after a lot of research I landed on Suntek PPF Ultra. It's been extremely durable (hitting flying rocks on the highway had zero affect) and is pretty much invisible. Self healing and nothing seems to stick to or stain it.

Had a PW wrx. Looks amazing when taken care of, especially in that last half hour of the day @ Sunset.

No touch up paint will match, so get the clear bra at any/all cost.

The clear bra is the best investment or car "mod" I've ever spent money on. Just get it. I'm lost on why people only do the first third of the hood. Do the ENTIRE hood or NOT at all. Ge the entire front bumper done. The lower side skirts will get rock chipped to all hell, so get those done if you can (chances are they will try to get out of doing them).

Lastly: Following distance = longer the better, but there's a sweet spot.

Pearl White is awesome. Touch up kits will come with two bottles, ground coat and mid coat. I have two pearl white cars and the touch ups for small chips don't stand out any more than my other 1-2 stage metallic paint cars.

Make sure you have a really good painter though if painting large panels. it's a 3 stage paint and takes time/skill to match properly.

Where do you buy those touch up kits from?

Automotive Touch Up

Have bought touch up paint for my last 5 cars here (3 of them were pearl white), all have been great matches. Highly recommend them.
