I thought you weren't suppose to clean your car for x days when it's brand new? lol and yeah what blades said, shouldn't it have a fresh coat of wax on it from the dealer?

If it's right off the assembly line new, sure, wait a month or so. But this car was built at the end of 2012.

not if you're constantly repainting the bumper after every snow season.. in my case, being that I never drive my Z according to you guys, I shouldnt have an issue.

Well that depends on the individual person. If you're gonna have it repainted after each little rock chip then it's not worth it. If you do it after a while and having a bunch of rock chips and stuff then it's better.

Khoi - Sorry for continuing to MAZOC the thread. I'll get back on track and say that I can't make it to your event this weekend, but I may have to try and get by your shop one of these days! Little bit of a drive for me. I live near Dulles Airport.

You'd be surprised what you can get off of a car with a clay bar after being transported by truck/train and sitting on a lot for a couple-few months.
