Road Rash on Rear Fender M3

Noticing after 3 months (Alpine White F80) that I am starting to see small amounts of chips in the area just above the protective factor film and to the right of that film. Not a big deal since I still have my Langka repair kit from my 335i. Wondering if anyone else is noticing the same. I believe the M4's have the same film bit it covers a larger area. Maybe its because the M3 fenders are so pronounced. Not sure.

Even had my clear bra installer install film on my rear bumper around the wheel arches and lower edge. Seems to be doing a door job there.

Any chance you can take pictures of the effected area? I'm going to do a clear bra for the front, but am wondering if I should do it in the area you are talking about.

Its right above the existing factory clear piece located on the wheel arch of the back fender.

Yes I see the same thing on my M3. Feels like the clear film could have been at least 2" higher.
