Nismo Z factory paint defect

All you have to do is tell the service advisor to write on the order: DO NOT WASH CAR

Then tape a couple of signs inside on the steering wheel and dash that say
"DO NOT WASH/NO LAVE" to cover both English and Spanish employees.

As far as Nissan paint goes...in general, Nissan paint is pretty soft and thus swirls pretty easily even just from wiping it down with poor quality or just contaminated towels.

my car has clear coat cracks on the trunk and hood already. I naively

purchased the Simoniz clear coat too. Now-I am hoping because I have a warranty on the clear coat-that it will get fixed. Tomorrow i am sending a copy of my warranty and a written statement to SImoniz. Maybe by purchasing the extra clear coat i have indeed saved myself...since otherwise i would have to deal with nissan and their warrany on their clear coat / paint...does not sound by this forum that i would get very far...

If you check the driver side , the gap is a bout 0.5mm bigger in the same areas. The passanger side is on tighter.
