Paint code is 6U1.

Get out your polish and wax 'er up to kill those scratches!

i have washed it twice and dont have any scratches at all. but i dont use a towel or anything to dry the car. i just take it on the higway for about 4miles at 75mph and airdry it. Then, once i get home i get a towel and get any little drops here and there and do the doorjams. comes out looking great. Becarful with waxing or polishing. im not sure how long but noramly you cant wax new paint for a few weeks.

My TCM scratches easy too, but a little wax and quick detailer cover most up just fine.
