I would say fight the good fight, but others with GT-Rs have been given the finger by Nissan over paint issues. Even those that are absolute factory defects. I doubt they will change their tune for us lowly Z guys. Your best bet is to paint peices on your own some day and be done with it. Sad, I know.
No kidding. Sorry to hear that everyone else is having this problem, too. Doesn't sound good.

Averaging ~50miles/day does that to a car, especially with our roads here in DFW.

I'll just get a repaint down the line and make sure to clear bra it immediately afterwards.
I'm averaging about 30 miles a day. The rednecks are always throwing $h!t off of their "muddin tars". It is pissing me off.



I only have about 2k miles on the car. What do you guys think about using Dr. Colorchip to hide the chips, then putting 3M Clearbra over it? I got a quote for $1k.
