WW Evo X's dirty rear? LOL

Ok so I making this thread to see if any of you guys have the same problem. Everytime I clean my carit takes less than 2 days for the back of my car to get full of crap from my exhaust! Does this happen to you guys with mods? This is the first white car I have ever owned so I have v=never noticed this on any of my other cars that we modded.

No airflow/water flow on trunk + exhaust gas. Happens on all our cars, just stands out more on white.

Same here... and on WW it's really terrible, sometimes it's very hard to clean because it seems to penetrate into the paint itself!!

Thats the main reason I always tried staying away from white and black vehicles, cool silver isn't to bad at having dirt show, but the deck lid, bumper and side skirts always seemed to be a dirt/dust haven!

Tune it and it will be much better. Run E85 and it disappears.

Yep do you guys get the orange spots in the paint that you have to remove with clay? It's a pain.

Have you guys considered maintaining the paint with a highly durable, (fairly) high-temp resistant sealant like FK 1000P? You can use it on your wheels and calipers, as well. Dirt/brake dust/etc come-off very easily.
