i did it a few months back and there wasnt one paper towel at the damn gas station and i still had to go inside to get my change. I told the fat ***** that was working there to get off her *** and put some towels outside. Went home and washed that part really heavy with dawn then 2 or 3 coats of wax and i never noticed anything was wrong with it.

I guess I was over-reacting a bit. Did some hardcore waxing and it finally came out. Phew. Had me scared there for awhile. It was one of those I ****ed up my car moments.

I've always spilled paint on my car so many times. Never knew this was an issue but my car does not have any spots or anything. Car wash it and its gone.

Huh? Spilled paint on your car?
Anyways, spilling gas on the paint should not leave a permanent mark. I have trouble believing you tried to get it out the first time and couldn't if you were able to later?

why would gas ruin a paint job? .. at worst it just hazed over the clear

as for the Z having terrible paint .. dodge and hyundai have to be the worst
I don't think you can even beging to fathom how terrible the Z's paint is!! If a bird even thinks about sh*ting on the car a stain will appear. And if you stare at it long enough the paint will chip.
