Paint chipping
Does anyone have issues with significant paint chips on lower doors? Bt the car used and there is a significant amount of road rash- obsidian paint and car is almost new. Using Dr. Color Chip and expel to protect going forward but surprised at how fragile a sub 1000 mile car is.

Thanks. What did you use to make the extension? I’ve asked the dealer if I could purchase the little wing for the rear fenders separately but he hasn’t replied.
The summer tires in 21” are so sticky and wide. I think I will see damage to the PPF if I continue with the same tires. Has anyone found suitable replacement all seasons in the stock 21” size? Tire rack doesn’t have any.

The little extensio only comes riveted to the flare as one part. Dealer had changed my rear flares before I picked up the car. They are checking to see if they still have the old ones...how did you make your extension?
