His paint will last forever haha I wouldn't mind spending 3k if I had the money! Seeing rock chips and bad paint sucks. Hard to find good shops to do paint jobs these days too.

There was one guy who spent $5-6k on his RCF doing full body xpel and opticoat!

Anyways, you are BALLER!!!

Ha ha.. not really. Just investing in my car, and went with the best of the best: cq finest, top detailer, top ppf, top tint and tinter

Oh man! Good job! I'm glad to see another person caring their cars!

When I walk in my parking lots, I feel depressed sometimes looking at cars especially the luxury cars that are neglected by the owners. It is even sad when I see nice cars being washed by the swirling machine in the car wash stations around my town. I sometimes walk up to the owners and tell them don't hurt the cars like that, it hurts me! haha.
