What's the downside?
Also, I wouldn't put too much faith in the Scratch Shield paint, it helps against light scratches. But, do you really think it's going to do much against rock chips and sand damage? Let's be real about this.

You assumed incorrectly. Clear bra is not cheaper than paint, which is one of the reasons why some don't get clear bra, because the can just repaint.

Or you could just put a new clear bra, right? That's cheaper than a re-paint I would assume. Plus, good material clear bras should allow UV rays to go through so the paint sun-fading should be even throughout the front of the car.

not saying the new paint will replace a clear bra, but it should help with the light stuff. if a rock wants to chip your paint, its going to do it lol.

Well I didnt get a clear bra because I wanted to be able to polish the actual paint of my car, no plastic. And when it gets older, you will see the outline of it as the dirt builds and I dont want that.
I wish I could get those off in front of the rear tires. But I am afraid I will damage the paint.
