    So far I've got clear bra, reinforced sway bar brackets, (sub frame reinforcement?), lighting codes, skid plate

    If you are on stock wheels then downsizing to 17" would help if funds allow it...

    Good point, I'd probably opt for some steelies either way, hopefully can get a used set already wrapped with tires

    If you're not driving over these crappy roads every single day, I would recommend spraying the areas prone to rock chips with PlastiDip. That way, you can nice temporary protection. I would spray the area behind each wheel. You shouldn't have to worry about rock chips in the front if nobody is going to be driving in front of you. PD is cheap, so you can buy a couple of cans and lay it on nice and thick.

    It's not the car you drive, it's how you drive it.

    lol I'm not sure if I'm understanding this correct, but just spraying PD over my paint in prone areas? Seems like it could work utilitarian style but I don't see myself spraying the paintwork

    The beauty of PlastiDip is that it's totally removable by just peeling it up. It's a flexible rubberized material. The thicker you spray it, the easier it is to remove! Just make sure the paint to be sprayed is clean prior to application. Trust me, it's totally safe for your paint.

    Wow really? I may end up doing that, definitely cheaper than the clear bra lol

    Maybe start off running a lightly "enhanced" ZHP, with cash in reserve for that beater in case you have to change your plans.

    I think if I were using a beater for that run, I would still make a few trips in the ZHP just for the fun of it

    That's why I really want to take it, I love putting miles on! And what do you mean by enhanced?

    I dunno, like pick from the substantial list of mods that have been discussed here and pick a handful that make the most sense to you.

    Oh haha I gotcha, there's already a pretty good amount of mods done to it prior to my purchase, everything that I would have done to it had already been done
