Son Of A B****

AHHHHHHHHHHHH !!!!!!! ive had my damn 06 MR for just over 2 week. TWO WEEKS!!!!!! and some **** loving a-hole already decided to ram his front license plate screw directly into the back of my bumper causing a end-of-screw shaped circle on the car, not only that, but its a deep one, that took the paint and some urethane(ot whatever the bumper is made of) off. ahhhh im so pissed i cant explain it. anyways thought id vent for a sec and then come to my next point. this freakin car flings little pebbles and rocks around like its no ones business. from a brand new car and brand new paint job 2 weeks ago, i already have ATLEAST 10 paint chips all over the car. the wing, the rear left door has like 4,rear left top piece(cant remember the name haha), the front right fender has like 4, the front bumper, plus the idiot that hit the rear bumper, what a wonderful life. is it just me or do all of your cars fling rocks around and chip off paint in little places??? also where can i get a little tube of MATCHING red touch up paint to match my 06 evo MR red(i think its called rally red?) so i can dab all the little chips and attempt to make it look a bit better? any help would be great thanks guys!

The tires are so sticky, thats why it flings rocks etc.....

The smart thing to have done would be to do the 3M clear bra all around the car before leaving the dealership lot....

but its too late now.....

good luck with the car and enjoy it

Was this on normal paved roads? Freeway? I would be angry as all hell if I got rock chips in two weeks. My integra didnt have rock chips for the longest time, but I did get door dings from idiots in the parking lot.

Part of it is from the sticky tires the other part is from the sh*tty paint.

As far as touch up paint try your dealership.
