It not just snow, I work in nyc and roads here have taken beating this winter from all the snow and freezing weather with pot hole the size of VW bugs lol, and with roads falling apart from all the salt and heavy traffic with just one of roads that I travel having more than 400,000 vehicles traveling thru it daily and this includes semi truck and when there driving along kicking up bits and pieces of blacktop or concert. See what that will do to your car not to mention just plain old normal cars doing the same thing unfortunately almost every major highway has incurred some road damge so no matter what route you take your going to hit some bad road conditions. Everyone know how soft or paint is, on my prevous lexus IS350 after it first winter I had three serous chips one on roof between top of wind shield and sunroof and several minor one, had to paint the hood and bumber again I then had clear bra installed to help protect it.

I'm having the clear bra installed on ISF on Thursday doing hood, leading edge of front fenders rear lower portion of front fender just behind vents, front bumper, side mirrors, and bottom section of rear quarter panels and after clear bra is installed, I still will not use my F during a severe winter here, just because of poor road conditions that what my highlander truck is for. Now if it was a mild winter and roads were in good shape sure why not put set of snow tires and its a wrap but until that occurs my F will stay in my garage unfortunately until spring good luck with your F.
