Hmmmm, I was gonna vote against the whole idea. But speedyguy'* comment about matching the color kinda changed my mind. Sounds potentially pricey, but...

As long as you take off and wash a bra at least one a week or every two weeks you're fine.

I have followed the goop industry since the dawn of rhino-hide coatings and chipping is not going to be an issue for the right product applied properly.

On a full size logging truck it can happen with tones of load on the truck if it drags over a sharp stone. Very different application here and it does not have the same stress load.

Talk to the different coating companies it will be easy to get it to work.

Look on the net and you will find the best "bra'* around are color coded to match the yellow Porsche or the red Lambo. No big deal no matter what way you go. I suggest you look around and investigate with line X and Rhino-Hide they are both very reputable companies who can give you an idea of your options and send you to the closest dealer where they can show you first hand what can be done.
