"Protection Packages"

Dealer called offering it. I'm thinking of not having it done. Anyone ever do one of these and think it's worth it?

Paint protection? Pass on it. I do not think they are worth it. You can protect your paint yourself, look around the show and shine section on this board. Plenty of good info there.

Yeah that was my thought on it also. Thanks. It was 'paint protection, undercoating and interior protection'. Lifetime guarantee on paint 'defects' (although their definition and mine are probably different), and stain coating for the interior.

Re: "Protection Packages"

its a rip off. just do it yourself. all it is is scotch guard on the interior and a sealant on the paint. and most dealerships dont clay bar the car before sealing it.
