Default Paint chips??????????

I am getting real sick of how easy the paint chips on the car. You can hardly drive on a highway without getting numerous small chips. My wifes falcon is three years old and has hardly any damage compared to my 7 week old Z......are the rest of you having problems?

I know there have been many complaints on this site from the US guys about this. I personally haven't noticed it as yet. I do however try to stay away from danger wherever possible.

Yep, it's a stone magnet, its lower to road, bigger frontal paint area plus supper light paint to keep the weight down hehehe. I Know what you mean though, I've got as many chips on it in 6 months than I had on my 3 yr old R8 Clubsports but I still love it.
I'll get the front bumper resprayed when it gets to unbearable.

yep..same here.

it almost pays to have a low speed accident after 1 yr of being on the rd so that you can get a new spray job.
