...three door dings, two windshield nicks, one decent ding on the front of the hood, multitudes of minute rock chippettes all over the front of the car from driving during last winter, and one major cosmetic 'imperfection' on the drivers rear quarter valance panel, that needs fixing courtesy of some moron who couldn't park his or her car.

cheers,

I'll take pictures next time it's dry. Haha, that may be a while, though, seeing as I live in the rainy Pacific Northwest.

Ah, makes me thankful Mile High Honda installed the clear bra to the front of the hood.

I actually have no chips on my hood. But I do have some weird imperfections on the hood. It's bubbled, like there's little pieces of gravel/sand under the paint.

:paranoid: :paranoid: a 2 year old car, I have at least 100 chips, mostly on front hood and bumper, and a 1.5 inch dent on rear passenger side, at least 30 scratches on clean coat, with longest abt 15 inches long (ouch) a crack in the glass(by a damn rock picked up by a damn truck, that's why never follow a truck when on highway...) too much to post..!!! aaaarh~~~ :paranoid: :paranoid:

Marks come with usage, I'm afraid you will just have to accept it as a fact of life.. :dunno:

The only way not get annoyed by daily added damage is --- not to look!! :)

Funny!


Trying to keep cars perfect will drive you crazy. (I know; I used to do it.)


Now that we have two little ones, I don't even bother look anymore...

...but I did look at my wife's Odyssey today when I cleaned it. That thing picks up more little nicks/scratches/etc. than I've ever seen in a car I've owned (or pay for, as the case may be). Ah well, all part of the fun.
