i have mine professionally installed on bonnet and doors. you still need to wax them occasionally to prevent from yellowing, bird drop acid can also etch into the plastic. this is only stone chip guard.
dont expect to remove it once you have put it on (unless ofcourse there is a damage), as it will remove the waxes on the original panel.

Are you talking about 3M Paint defender product or 3M PPF film(usually professionally installed)?

Ive had the 3M invisible bra installed on my GL350 for over a year now and its been on quite a few 1000+ mile road trips and put on over 35k miles in one year and COVERED in bugs and it comes right off. and not a single rock chip as the bra is quite thick but hardly noticeable and its on a white GL. it covers the whole front bumper, the side mirrors as well as 1/3 of the hood and cost around $600 installed. A bit but definitely a great investment!! going on my X5 as well as soon as I pick it up.

Yeah, I think many people are confusing the two.

Changed the title to be more specific.

We are talking about the spray-on paint defender in this thread.
