Around here we get a lot of rocks flying around, so I've always put some sort of invisible bra on my cars. It's not a perfect solution, but it helps cover the main areas. But these are always cars that I've owned so I didn't mind spending a few grand on those. I'm planning on leasing the Model 3.
Are you even allowed to put an invisible bra on a leased car? If you are, and I don't, and there is paint chip damage when I turn it in will I get penalized? What about things like door dings, curb rash and minor bumper scratches? Do you get penalized for those sorts of things? Do they expect the car to be pristine when you return it? Or are you allowed some normal wear and tear?
