Picked up my car yesterday and the wait was worth it. This car is AWESOME!!! Did find two issues while inspecting the car. First one was what I believe to be a small Metallic paint chip on the hood. Not a chip that you can grab with your finger nail, but a small Metallic paint chip silver of course that is between the paint and the clear coat. Not sure how they're going to fix it. Anyone have any ideas on how they're going to fix it? I really want that fixed before I get Paint Film protection and Ceramic coating. The other issue is my IWC clock the glass has a scratch from the 9 to 3 o'clock position. Other than that it was perfect. Let the mods begin

Do you cover the car in the garage every day?

HA HA...no and yes, I just finished detailing it and I work seven on seven off and I don't want to drive it too much until I get the Paint Protection on it and Ceramic coating. Yes, because I have a wife that parks next to me and its a very very small garage

Of course if she hits it, it would be your fault for parking too close. Good call on the cover.

Your coupe looks great. On the paint, if it is under the clear coat, it likely will not color sand out. Respray would be your likely option.

Congrats on the car! Looks great. But you are parking on the wrong side the garage. That's why she dings you. If you park on her passenger side, she won't ding you.
