*rant* Is the paint on the X cheap or what?
I've been detailing cars here and there for the past five years, and never once have I seen factory paint so damn thin! I was doing a light buff on the paint on my aero spoiler...and what happens? My paint gets burned! This is factory paint, mind you! My custom paint shop can do better than this!
Now I gotta go see if it can be blended...I really don't want to paint the entire rear spoiler...*sigh*

Maybe it's Japanese paint that is bad because my wife had a new 2002 Mazda Protege 5 and the hood was so chipped after two years that it was rusting and her Civic before that was horrible as well.
Meanwhile my 2005 SRT-4 had really good paint as I could count the rock chips on one hand after a couple of years owning it.
