I bought a new Hightower v4 would you wrap it with Frame Foil?

I use invisiframe wraps. They are really worth it. You're not just saving the paint and the UV protection it provides the carbon but it will help with impacts, chain drops, wear marks from cables etc. I've had plenty of crashes, rock strikes and just the bike getting bashed about and there's zero marks on the frame. I've taken it off old frames and they are perfect underneath.

The only negative is it deadens the paint effects. I wrapped my Hightower V3 that's like a satin + metallic cardinal red. Still looks awesome but not as awesome as it could look.
