Yeah, they happen VERY easily. In a few weeks Ill be doing a nice full detailing to get rid of it all. My back hatch is the worst (mostly due to all the winter crap that builds up back there and when you wash it does the damage).

But yeah, ill see how it goes. Between the easy scratching and how many rock chips you get, gonna be a long hard road to keep it pristine ;)

yea i was wondering the same thing, i think they keep the price down on these cars by only using one coat of paint, which really sucks, i might bring my front and rear bumpers to my local spray shop and have him do a few coats along with some extra clear on top.
