Paint Protection film - Where to put? More pics?

A couple of months ago I purchased my first 4Runner - a 2014 TEP. Needless to say, this forum has been incredibly educational & helpful. My TEP came with a vinyl paint protection package, but it does not cover some other areas that RKIs on this forum have identified as known wear areas that should also get it.

I recently got a Gobi roof rack... and now that I'm needing to order some 3M film, I was wondering if there are any other "wear points" I should install it on beyond these three areas:
1) roof line under the Gobi wind deflector
2) on the rear hatch door where the Gobi ladder is installed
3) under the rear spoiler between the spoiler & hatch

Other than Antman's post with pictures of the roof line film... does anyone else have any pictures or tips regarding the film under spoiler or Gobi ladder? The spoiler to hatch contact area seems to be the one that I can't seem to find any pics of installed film.

I put some under my fairing and it works great. I wish I would have read this about 3 hours ago because I just installed my ladder. I was very nervous about sliding the mounting plate on. I was scared I would scratch it. It slid in without scratching. I think the two sided tape that's on it does a good enough job to prevent scratching. I even called Gobi and they said not to worry about it scratching, it'll be fine. They were right.
