Here's Hoping Third times's the Charm
 
We all know how cheap the 370's paint is so i will make this short.....
Taking my car back for the third time to redo some paint that is starting to
chip off of the inside front left fender on the inside edge..........

Wish me luck.

you would think Nissan would try to use better paint, i remember my friends 2008 350z which was cheap paint also.

Nissan specially formulated the paint to save 1 pound over the whole car. The only down side is that it is the same formula as nail polish.

who would of thought one fender bender would lead to this.
3 times. Body guy swears its got to do with to much water added in at process.

has anyone heard of other nissan owners having these problems..
are is it just related to the 370...

I just realized friday that this paint isn't very sturdy. I got two tiny rock chips on my hood from driving on the 410, big mistake on my part. They are giving the road a facelift and there is like a one mile section that is undone and has a bit of loose gravel.

I don't know whether to cut my loses and install the clear bra or get a touch up and THEN get the clear bra.
