If you intend to track your car or do frequent Ulu Yam type convoy drives, PPF is the best option.  For normal daily city use, a good coating job is the better option as it will give better clarity/optics vs PPF and ease long term maintenance of the paint.

Track no use 1 la

Public roads Touge maybe.
But if you unlucky you get bigger stones, or constantly pelted by members with sticky tires, also same useless PPF will be destroyed

On bigger gravel, paint itself can be intact. However bumper still gets dent mark.

I got a couples. Won't know actual impact until replace the PPF.
PPF eliminate the paint chip on bonnet thought.

I notice Glasurit paint is really good. I have Glasurit clear coat on my carbon spoiler, no ultra fine micro scratches despite I casually wipe it with cloth over 3 years+.

smashing each other during group outing. Lol...

Depends your definition of bigger. Sepang sizes no way paint survive, unless maybe those costing 5 figure paint like Glasurite (top tier models) that generally only used on conti cars and definitely not on your usual P1 P2 T&H/Japanese
My car paint all damages until the base coat (no rust)
But some of the front roof and fender down to bare metal until rust showed. Front Bumper about half shaved until bare plastic.

This year end finally got to respray entire car from UMW Toyota Lexus Melaka, quoted 5.5k .
Long overdue pending since 2019 since very limited budget all the time sad.gif

Smashing is all fun and games until that windscreen gets a bullseye or straight up crack laugh.gif
You'll wiser up in a hurry to either overtake quickly or stay further behind
