What did they do about the chips before install?
I was in the same situation and PPFd my entire car. The stone chips actually disappeared when the PPF went on top, it was quite amazing actually.

I had painted VB stripes done, which entails sanding the panels getting striped (both bumpers, hood, trunk, roof), painting stripes and then re-clearing those panels. I missed fixing one VERY tiny chip on the hood first which is now permanently preserved beneath the clear. But it's not hard to see if you know where to look.

How does PPF make a chip invisible?

No idea... when the film went over these small chips you couldn't see them anymore. Crazy!

Fortune Auto 510 coilovers up front with 250lb/in springs. They are too low by 1" which can be solved simply by adding about an inch of preload to the spring. And if need by then changing ride-height by adjusting shock length.

What kind of caliper paint is this?
Don't know what's on that car but I bought my high temp epoxy Velocity Blue caliper paint from G2. They didn't offer it before and it took a lot of effort to get them to add it to their offerings because for some reason they would not sell any color that some supposedly independent company from G2 sold the color as regular paint. So, I had to first convince that company to add Velocity blue to their line of paints.
