Honestly, I've never had a car with either, and don't feel I've really suffered because of it. I realize I'll probably live to regret that statement...

Different strokes... :happy0180:
Well opti coat isn't really for protecting the shine, the shine is just a by product of excellent chemical engineering. The best reason to have opti coat installed is because your paint will be more resistant to water and bird etching (which sometimes look as bad as chips on the front). Basically your protecting your paint, giving it a longer lease on life if you will. Just thought I would point that out.
