Opti-coat and a clear bra will solve 99% of your environmental problems.

yah my 10yr old G looks brand new still besides the very tiny chips i got on the front bumper and rockers. could've prevented those with clearbra.

but i cant see them from a few feet away so i dont care. nissan paint isn't as bad as people say. most just dont know how to care for it. (or just defective from factory).
