Uh oh, now you've done it.:stirthepot:

Not sure how common they are or not, but I have a few of those chips as well fwiw.

Bwahaha! I've had "cacophony" in my hip pocket for months then, BAM, I was able to whoop it out! :tiphat:

And not to hate, but it's "pedantic," not "padantic." :owned: :icon17:

Check out autopia.org if you want detailing tips Z-WHIZ. Plenty of profressional detailers, and enthusiasts. Some extremely OCD with their car detailing. :hello:

Don't get a budget paint job...you won't be happy. First lesson learned, Don't ever buy a black car!

Some interesting stuff on there, thanks for the suggestion.

There is this stuff called Flitz Polish. It took bird crap stains out of my paint. The stuff is awesome.

Hmm.... I think I've seen this before too. I didn't realize you could use it on paint.

I have a few like this in almost the exact same spot. I think there's a thread from a while back where a few people said they were getting chips in that area too.

I have a few like that also. Touch-up paint is your friend!

At least I'm not the only one then. Maybe I'll just touch them up and then have some clear bra strips placed over the area.
