But I just dont think it offers protections like the paint shield does, stone chips can damage the wrap.

I think you can keep the warranty by visiting the Crown center once in a year...
My Camry did 60K km in 2 years time, nothing needs to change even the brake pad ... I think it will have some wear & tear parts only at 100K km ... which will be a lot to regular Camry user I think.

you know for my honda front bumper to change it will cost be over $15000 just the front grill cost over 3k, side mirror 8k each.
Why would you need to change those? car accident?
If so the cost isn't that much since nowadays design of new cars is very different to the old cars, the impact force will be evenly distributed to the whole car, you are lucky for that light weight bill.

Hi, welcome aboard, if £148.95 (inc. VAT) + £5.00 UK Delivery price is your acceptable range. I suggest you order Philips HID kit in Hong Kong which is the most reliable product in market.
