Who's going to get on their back and look under your car and point that out??? I'm anal too with my Z but you have to chalk that one up

I hear you, I'm just extremely OCD when it comes to my car. It wouldn't be so bad if the scratches weren't as deep as they are. I guess you are right though, I must be losing my mind, lol.

I hate to say this, but you're going to have to get used to it with this car. The paint is rather thin. It chips easily. ClearBra is definitely the right thing to do. But even with a ClearBra you're going to get minor chips and scratches every now and then. But on the positive side, I've never had a car that generates so little brake dust. (See, it's not all doom and gloom.)
