Plastidip the bumper for a long drive.
Did somebody did so?
I'm planing a road trip next month with my family and will be driving my car to San Diego from the Bay Area. I was just wondering if it is enough to protect the car from road chips. |

Why not donate your priceless automobile to a museum? It will be protected from rock chips there. Jesus Christ kid, it is a freaking 3-series. Just relax, enjoy the drive and some family time and forget the stupid car.

With all due respect sir, this 3 series to me is like one of those priceless car that Ralph Lauren has to him. I've had a couple of BMW's before so I probably won't consider my self as a kid any more, though I might be to you. To each his own buddy. Have a nice day!

Have you considered installing 3M clear bra?

No matter what car you have whether it be a civic, 3, lambo you treat it with the same care and respect. whats a civic to one person is a M3 to another...okay im exaggerating but you get the idea

Tape would definitely be in my mind. I was just wondering if plastidip is a better idea. And by the way, I already have a clear bra. I just want to have an extra protection. Probably CombatNinja will get even more mad at me. LOL!

If you already have a clear bra, you're fine.

By the way OP, I'm wondering the same thing as I plan to go to Bimmerfest this year. Painters tape looks dumb, but I just might. |

This.
That's the point of a clear bra. Foolish to add anything else. |

Don't pay attention to that combat creep...3m spray I heard does a decent job so give it a try & have a safe trip.

His advice is always so helpful and cheerful. Do what you want. I probably would just cause it would be funny as hell Or not, that's a lot of plastidip. Your call.
