I only wrapped the front fender, lights and my mirrors, and at 8000 miles traveling in very heavy construction zones, I don't have a single chip anywhere. The hood is too raked back to really get hit by a stone, unless it has a downward trajectory.. and even then I have had no issues. I detail my car about once every 2-3 days, so I would know if there were any issues. Save your money and just do the front and mirrors...
I agree with FalconFlyer. I got the front, lights and mirrors wrapped in Xpel Ultimate. That's where you are going to get the most exposure on the car. Even this film will eventually display microscratching even though they claim it heals by itself.

I got it done for about $1000. They quoted me $1500-2k for the whole car.
