I would love to do both, but would rather spend the money on mods. The car is a lease.
The only reason I wanted to get a clear bra is because on my previous cars, the paint would always get chipped on the front bumper and this time i'm getting Dravit Grey, which is nicer (and more expensive) than my previous Alpine White. So I didn't want any chips. Ceramic coating would make washing my car a lot easier and also protect my entire car against the elements.
Any thoughts on this? Thanks!

Go for clear bra on hood, fenders and front bumper. I think the coatings are an expensive waste of money.

Thanks for the replies! If i could, i would do both a front PPF and ceramic coat, but i dont feel like spending that much on that. Front clear bra (bumper and headlights) is around $750 and ceramic coating is also around $750, so im trying to choose either or.
Since the car is a lease, I would rather allocate funds towards mods and such.
