Congrats on the purchase,
But for those taping up their cars to stop chips etc... for the love of god, at least get it done using a decent product.
Yes it costs a little more than a roll or 2 of tape, but you can barely see it for one, and it should last for years, and WILL actually stop stone chips, and even minor scratches/scrapes.
We use 3M scotchguard paint protection film. See below. (FYI this image isn't my own)
