    Just a suggestion, but I saw a few vehicles at the local autocross event last year and they were completely plastidipped. They mixed the plastidip with the color they wanted the car and sprayed it on. It was something like $400 and i looked amazing. And if you change your mind peel it off. I think this one guy had his on for a few years and it still looks great.

    Nope not at all. You just leave it there. It does a real good job or protecting your real paint from sun damage, scratches and rust. Ive noticed it becoming more and more popular.

    If you have bad clear coat i would recoment pressure washing all the loose stuff off, thats about it.

    No problem, just look into it, it might be for you. Seen a couple BMWs with it, so if done right its snazzy.
