Stone Chips. :(

I think that Cressida was 1988, production run 1976-1992

The 3 litre came out here in late 1988 — a completely new car (here, at least,) model run 1988-1992, discontinued to boost Lexus sales. Prior model was a gussied up Corona II.

Mine was one of the first sold — still the best car I ever had (out of about 70-odd passenger and commercial) and occasionally I still miss it.

Went to the local dealer's for parts for a job — saw the new Cressida, took it for a burn up the freeway, come back and wrote a cheque on the spot. Never regretted it.

Traded for a Mk6 TDI in 2009, now driving Mk7 ditto, neither really measures up to the Cressida (passengers agree.)

Beam me up Scotty...........

Well, I'm getting over it a little but now kind of nervous every time I wash my car. I guess I can always paint it later down the track when it gets worse, in a few years.

the paint protection film is design to protect the front of a vehicle against the stone chips.

As long as it is the bonnet, then if it came to that, I suppose a high quality vinyl wrap would be the way to go.

vinyl wrap is NOT design to protect against the stone chips and it will not help. what you need is the paint protection film.
