W,
Your 240 is pimped out! I live in Austin and want to ask where you did you get that front bumper on your ride!? (is that an '05 Kompressor face?) Very nice indeed.

Snow itself doesn't really do much damage to the finish, but how you decide to remove it could damage it. We just got that kind of snow last night where I am, but we're used to it.

Do you mind explaining what's the proper way to remove snow? (I'm serious)

Well, this is more so based on darker colored cars than lighter since you can't really notice swirls as much in lighter paint... but basically, not removing snow on the paint is the best way to deal with it. Let it fall off as you go. Just clear your windows, headlights, taillights, mirrors and license plate and let the motion take care of the rest.

I've seen people use shovels as brushes to clear the snow off their cars... obviously that just won't do. Haha.

When you have 2 feet of snow on your car, it wouldn't be too smart to let "the motion" take care of it. Just this morning, I was a couple cars behind some dumba@# that did just that. A big chunk came off in the wind & almost caused an accident.

Sorry, but it's just a little pet peeve I've got. It"s stupid & dangerous. I'm pretty sure, around here, you can get a ticket for not clearing your car.
