if you're going to take your car out west or on country roads (e.g. high temps, lost of dust, kicked-up dirt from trucks, poor roads) then you might want to weigh up the longevity/durability of acrylic v/s 2pac.
i went with the 2pac as i wanted the colour to stay, even if the car was used like a B/S ute for a few months every year.
also, if it's a daily driver, then parking in the sun - with lots of polution precipitate - is going to discolour/age the acrylic first? (open to advice here?)
fwiw: my g/f's sister car (Cordia) was 2pac'd then moved in Mt Isa for 2 years (long story). Car was repaired after kangaroo v/s car incident in first 6 months of stay - the repair work was not 2pac so has faded, 2pac is as-sprayed. The Mt Isa pollution accelarated the ageing of paint, so a few years on, the differences in the durability of the paints is obvious.
Also, mate who drives Landrover 4WD used marine 2-pac on steel rims and bullbars - is very hard to chip/scratch.
