370Z paint getting chipped by rocks

Just about to hit 7,500 miles. My biggest rock chips are on my side skirts, I'm assuming the shape of the skirts make it easier for rocks to make contact

Just about to hit 7,500 miles. My biggest rock chips are on my side skirts, I'm assuming the shape of the skirts make it easier for rocks to make contact (and some bad luck). Front end is covered with a clear bra, so chipping is very minimal there.

The bottom line is if you use your car, it will get jacked to some extent no matter what you do.

True, whether it's your fault or not.

Agreed, but I still wrap my cars.
