I did two things to get some extra paint protection. First i did is the "new car paint sealant/protection" offered by Big Berts and Hillsborough. It's the first thing i did to my BRZ. It gives you an extra thin layer to protect your paint from bird poop stains and other small road elements. You need to re-apply this every three months. Costs around P1,200 to P1,800 depending on which shop you go to. Both Big Berts' and Hillsborough's work are highly regarded by many enthusiasts.
Secondly, i went for an Xpel clear bra. Full front bumper only. This should protect my bumper from stone chips especially during convoys, fun runs, and long drives. It's available thru Hart International in San Juan. Got it for P18,000. Renault (shop owner) could throw you some freebies if you ask nicely hehe. He threw in some extra film to protect my door handle inserts and sidemirrors. Here is their website -
