Might be good to prevent scuffing on entering and exiting vehicle. Just wondering what the cost might be, and feasibility. Thanks in advance. Happy New Year.

Default I've done it and it's saved me a few times from careless passengers...

My shop charged $120 for each side, but you could probably have it done for less depending on where you go.

Default Well one of the sides got hit really bad by someone with a heel, so I had it replaced already...

As for all the other areas, I haven't kept a car long enough to ever have to replace the clear bra due to normal wear. I would say it all depends on the specific car and driver. Clear bra can last 5-10 years, however, some might yellow and others might not last as long.
