Flying pebble to the hood on the freeway.
Sadly though it seems like all sorts of scrapes and chips are appearing on my Z outta nowhere lately. I think people keep scraping me in my work parking lot. Its pretty lame I'm gonna have to start taking pics of my car daily and examining it after work and ask for camera footage if I keep gettin scraped up like this.

having trucker tire tread fly up from under the car in front of you and smacking the front of your bumper hard enough to leave a nasty "fingerprint" that has not been buffed out to date...

Ouch, kdo and zombie. Those sound rough!
My first was bad because someone else did it. My audio installers put a scrape in my console finisher (silver ring around the shifter). They used some touch up paint to get rid of the chip, but the crack is still there. They said whenever I want, they would remove the whole thing and sand/paint at a body shop for me. Last week I also got my first 3-4 small chips on the front Nismo bumper lip. I don't mind those much, but makes me want to get clear bra that much more.

I suppose I can go park out in the street somewhere but I see that as more of a liability because the parking lot at work at least has cameras and I can ask them to pull the footage if something major goes down. What else can I do?
