Thanks everyone for the very helpful information. Is the clear bra visible? (pics?) How long does it last?

It'll last forever and can be removed at any time. It'll protect you from almost all stone chips. The only disadvantage is that it looks imperfect on an otherwise perfect car, i.e., it will have some microscratches that are hard to buff out like you can on the paint.

No one hear actually mentioned opti-coat 2.0? The paint protection that the dealer is referring to is actually like adding a second coat of clear that protects the paint and is warranted. You can still wax it and apply a clear bra if you want. The ridiculous price the dealer has you pay is straight out stupid, when you can buy it and apply it yourself for about 70bucks. I applied it on my 2012 45th vert, had it detailed thoroughly, and then applied a clear bra to the front end. Google opti-coat 2.0 and you will see what I am talking about. As far as interior is concerned, do what a previous post says and get scotch guard. Maintenance is also key to keeping your car looking gorgeous, a good wash, clay, polish, wax will go a long way. Do your own research on products as we all have personal preferences and many push for adams on this forum. Best of luck!
