Is your body near perfect after all these months?

I get nervous when I see all the posts from people that are very protective of their camaro and still get paint chips, dings, and dents. These kind of posts seem to be overwhelming sometimes.
But I suppose nobody makes a post saying "My body is perfect after many miles."

Please tell me yours is still acceptable after how many miles.

have about 2400 miles on the car and only have 2 tiny chips on the front, but put a clear bra on it practically as soon as i got it so that helped out tons! just crossing my fingers and hoping no chips or anything this summer!

I have 14,550 and have a few chips on the gills but that's to be expected. Nothing major though. I have a clear bra on my front so that has probably saved me a great deal

12,000mi on mine, and very small specks here and there. All are pretty low on the car and pretty minor.

Clear bra has been awesome on the front.

No scratches, dings, chips, or swirls.

I think Clear Bra is the answer for these cars (reading posts like this). That's why this will be my first mod, and it will be done before the car even makes it home. I've never had a "toy car" like this before, so I want to make sure it stays nice as long as possible. It's going to be around for a long time (at least that's what my wife keeps telling me).

12,000 miles and parts of my front have a very pitted look to it with several actual chips. I drive at least 50 miles a day mostly on highway, so I knew it was going to happen.
