thats hott.... yeah def going to look like an idiot but it's better than putting some chips in the front already.
Something you may want to consider is getting a "clear bra" installed. It will protect you full time, but may cost 300+. Your purchasing dealer may even be able to do it for you. When using the painters tape, make sure to cover 1/2 way up the hood, because of the slant you can get chips all the way up there. Same for the fenders. You may also want to cover behind the front and rear wheels, to avoid road debris scuffing those areas, the tires kick up a lot of stuff.
Do a search on clearbra for more info, its been discussed heavily on this site. I think it may even have a FAQ.
