I don't intend to get a ppf...
I purchased my G05 out of state - it's about a 4 hr drive from the dealer home - and I had an appointment with my detailer literally the next morning for paint correction, PPF, and ceramic. Got a huge rock chip front and center of my hood by the time I got back to NY. Like a dagger through the heart...

Luckily my detailer is a magician with touch up paint, and I'd be hard pressed to find the rock chip under the PPF.
