How would clear bra have saved the paint from delaminating from the fender?
The 2nd spot looks to be at the leading edge of the roof. AFAIK, clear bra installers wouldn't extend the clear bra all the way to the very edge of the roof to butt up against the windshield. I could be wrong, but it just doesn't seem like clear bra would have helped in either of these cases.

Depending on the installer and how good they are at tucking and using a razor for their cuts, absolutely both areas could have been protected. Now if the OP did hit something, and it forced the side marker into the fender, perhaps PPF would not have helped. Although it still might have since there would be a bit of film to protect. In any case, he said they were stone chips. That being the case, it would have more than likely looked better than it does now.
