Do you have front mudguards?

If not, I'd put those on.

Otherwise, have a chat with Paintshield.

It looks fine IMO, and stops the majority of stones smile

The dealer sells them. I odered them after some rock chips were noticed. It really helped.

They look pretty reasonably priced at about £64 on various dealer websites
Are they simple to fit to the car?

Heli-tape (quite costly and only 3" widths IIRC) works well but thick and hard to fit.
Clear vinyl which you can purchase quite cheaply and much easier to fit and replace. Plus you can make it the shape of the OE stuff.

I have PPF from the rear arch right to the door edge with the upper limit at that swage line that runs from the top of the rear arch across the door.
I also have both sills completely covered and no "mud" guards
Works really well. 23k miles and not a single stone chip in the protected area wink

Be careful they are not all UV stable and can go yellowish in the sun
