Default ClearBra more than front bumper?

Hi all, I'm new to the 350Z community and based on what I have read, I need to get a clearbra in order to keep from getting rock chips. I know I will have clearbra applied to the front bumper, but should I have some applied to the hood, and top of front fenders as well? Most of the complaints, I hear are from the front bumper, how bad does the lower part of the hood attract chips compared to the bumper?

Most kits come with the hood/fender pieces as well, but you can just have the bumper done. Hood and fender fronts get chips too, maybe not as much as the bumper, but if you're doing clear bra, might as well do it right and get ot all done.

I had just my front bumper done and it was one of my best investments, my hood and fender didnt get too many chips but itd be good to get it all done at once. I mite have a 3M clearbra for sale, its only for the front bumper not the whole kit. Let me know if ur interested.

If you can i would have an area next to the door handles done as well as a small section between the hatch and the rear license plate.

Thanks for the responses, I will probably get both hood/fenders, and bumper done unless the price is outrageous, I will maybe do the bumper first, then have the hood done later. I have to allocate some funds for a cheap pickup for winter and other house hold needs.
As for 3M, I am most likely going to go with Ventureshield there is an installer 5 miles from me that is the best in the northwest. Ventureshield has a life time warranty and they now have a clear coat finish on it.
