I think you re spot on. I've driven my 335 in Midwest year around for 13 years , 200,000 miles without paint protection film. I hand wash the car myself which I enjoy every 2-3 weeks and the paint is in great shape except for rock chips on the hood and some scuffs on the bumper which probably started becoming noticeable even after just a year or two. I think your advice makes sense even if cost of rock chip repair is less than PPF.
Expecting my G80 to arrive soon and will probably keep it just as long but will probably use the e92 in the harsh weather. Any other problem areas with regards to rock chips on g80 besides front hood/fenders/bumper/mirrors?
