Default Daily Drivers without clear bra: major rock chip problem?

I'm getting a new front bumper. I'm definitely going to get a clear bra on it, but I'm wondering if I should remove the bra on my hood. I'm a detailing/shine loving freak, so the bra on the hood has always bothered me.

Those of you who don't have a clear bra and have a 50/50 highway/city commute, how bad is the rock chip problem on your hood only?

I did everything minus the hood and fender. The bumper is that what hurts the most. Keep the current bra on the hood or just remove it. I don't like the way a partial clear bra looks on it.

I just got a new bumper installed and the clearbra on the bumper and fenders. The front part of the hood gets chips and sandblasting. So I put the black bra on the hood only.

My front bumper gets most of the rock chips and my hood is in pretty good shape with only like three tiny chips which are not noticable. Unless you look real close. And I use my car as a daily driver. Planning on getting a clear bra for my front bumper when I get a bodykit.
