I have a Black Sapphire Metallic xLine and the first thing I installed was a full front clear plastic film which costs about $1,000 CAD.
I also bought some 3M plastic film from eBay ($50) and covered the bottom 6" part of the rocker panel (lower door area), and also the part where the rear door flares out (which I believe most of the rocks and debris hit)
Having an M Sport package (which I eluded on adding to my build) adds more flared and painted surfaces (lowered, painted front bumper cover, flared fender wheelwells, lower side skirt) which is highly susceptible against debris.

Impressed you applied the film yourself I would have made a hash of it
