Roger. Makes sense. Hey, maybe you'll have an idea - so, one of my bleeder valves seeped some fluid out while I was on the track. Disconcerting, and I may take her to the dealership to find out wtf the issue was - I tightened the **** out of it, and it'd still leak a bit.

Anyway, point is, I think it stained the paint - cant seem to get the marks off at all. Figure its burned into the clear and about the only thing to fix it is an aggressive polish?

yea, I don't think you can fix it. Mine weep a little too, leaving ugly streaks on the calipers.

Must just be an issue with people who hit the track. Should ask RCZ if he had issues. It was messy my first time out, thats for sure. Im thinking thats what caused my stability control system to freak.
