Default New member here just came up on a 350z

Its preowned but in near flawless condition. CS 03' touring with Nav and the works. I was driving it the other day and have come to grips that there is no way I could've bought any other sports car comparable to the Z for the money i paid. Its one baddass machine.

Anyhow I just took off the mudguards and there is this black streak on the rear bumper from where the mudguard was sitting. It wont come off even after washing and meguiars polish, although the polish did take a little bit of it. Anything else i can use? Thanks. And hello to all, great forum!

heck ,since you'll be taking care of the streaks on the bumper - you might as well do the whole car. Since it's a '03 I'm sure you'll find a lot of tiny grime specs stuck on your car.

Welcome and where in Cali are you?

Zaino has great products but if you want the best claybar, try Mequiar's clay bar system, IMHO.
