Chips down to the bare metal!!!

It sucks to see this. I feel your pain, though. I, too, have quite a few chips down to the metal and plastic on my front bumper and fenders. Some happened driving home from the dealership, no less. What is worse, it was the very same way with my GT-R. Nissan's paint is atrocious - and seemingly has been for a couple of years now.

I would say fight the good fight, but others with GT-Rs have been given the finger by Nissan over paint issues. Even those that are absolute factory defects. I doubt they will change their tune for us lowly Z guys. Your best bet is to paint peices on your own some day and be done with it. Sad, I know.
