I had that black strip on our '89 900 (220k miles then sold) and our '01 9³. Both times, the dealer installed them when we bought the car new. I think I would have been a little more careful about alignment if I put it on myself. Sometimes protection works better when it fits properly ;o)
They're not magic, but they work OK. Over almost 220k miles our '89 got one good stone chip thru that black strip. Obviously, it can't protect against stones hitting farther up the hood. Oh yeah, it didn't keep us from putting a stone thru one of the headlights, either.
If I were you, I'd fix that stone chip first. Doesn't have to be pretty, but get the rust & cover the metal.
