I have a 09 Red Z (picked up in September) and I also noticed that bug splatters and/or water spots will etch the paint pretty easily if not removed right away. But I just recently put on some good wax (3M) that I've used before on my previous red cars, and its always worked well. So hopefully that helps. I also have quite a bit of orange peel in both bumpers which annoys me a bit... but the rest of the car looks good. Its just the bumpers that dont look the best.

Has anyone tried machine buffing (or even wet sanding) the bumpers to smooth out the clear coat a bit?
