You would be surprise let me tell you.. All i see are Benz, BMW's, Porshe and Lexus at this place. Some of these guys have thousand dollars rims and they like to do it themselves.. A regular car wash will **** them up. I've washed my Lexus there for almost 2 years and no paint fading on that car. I have a 3 piece wheel on that car and its the only place i will wash my car

MOD's JUST CLOSE THIS THREAD. This is getting ridiculous .
Here is my little secret -- Take to dealer on a Friday / Saturday and raise hell when new customers are buying Nissans. Talk loudly/remain calm/don’t settle for the BS, no need for profanity. Make sure customers can hear you. Come in looking very professional(casual pants/shirt i.e. look like you have some $$$$) - I've had new brake pads & front rotors < 1500mi for freaking annoying squeak. Refund check for my inconvenient visit to the Dealer. I buy new cars every year and all gave me at least one problem that had to be repaired by the dealer. A decent dealer will do the right thing

never thought something as simple as rock chips would start a flame war... lol
Nissan paint does suck. I have severe chipping/scratching on my mudguards from years of use. When it boils down to it, they cut a corner with the paint. I had a '93 camry that's paint job looked really good in 2004 when i sold it. 14 years of Florida sun didn't take the affect as 4 years of driving the Z. (and the Z is garaged) It's rediculous, but one of those things we all live with because the pros outweigh the cons.

I wash it at my house with a low pressure adapter. It kind of reminds you of a low pressure shower. Either way lets work on getting that Z back to the way you like it. Try and see if you can get your dealer to take a look at it for you. It may be a long shot but its worth the try. Good luck, and let us know what the results are 

I'm workin 12 days straight unfortunalty
next weekend i'm definatly going to the Dealership to see what they say
