My new paint job - MOAR PICS as requested

I came out to my car this morning to find that I had received a new paint job... from mother nature. I thought I would share these because I haven't seen anything like it, and my work truck parked right in front didn't have the same texture to the frost. It must be something from the last time I washed it that caused it but I wish I had taken more pictures, the hood looks unreal in the sunshine.

Hope you guys enjoy.

When did you wax the evo? And what kind of wax did you use?

You may hate me but, I haven't waxed the car since I have owned her. About two years now, and I will admit it is in need of a good detail.

That's wild. Here in MN we had frost this week hit along with first light snow. My silver Evo VIII had similar frost marks. Looked like a pine forest print on the side of my car.

Trust me I'm kicking myself for not taking more, that's what I get for being late for work. It was more prevalent on the hood and trunk, the sides of the car didn't have that pop in the texture.

It almost reminds me of some paint jobs on low riders, like the lace texture almost.
