That's another possibility I was considering. I'm just going to paint and seal it and see if it comes back.

BTW, is there a way to tell if a windshield is OEM?

Don't know if it's still required but older glass has to have a "bug" etched into it with manufacturer and other info. In bottom right corner, IIRC.

Edit: Checked my 2014 Challenger and it has a bug in the lower right corner. Door windows have the bug on bottom rear.

Didn't want to assume that he had the correct info listed. Mine was out of date up until today. Sold the z a couple of weeks ago.

No worries, I thought it was just funny to point out.

Good reason though, as I've seen some seriously corroded undercarriages of Z's on this forum and they lived in Florida. I'm in a salt/snow belt state and even my dd's didn't look dat horrible underneath.

Op's car looks more like a factory defect on da pre-primer process

Looks to me like your rust is a little too deep to just paint over. I'd try some naval jelly (or similar) since space is restricted.
