Does every little scratch bother you?
Not sure if it's just me, but does every little imperfection on the car bother you, no matter how small? For instance, a rock or something must have kicked up and it put a scratch on the plastic grill part of the front bumper. Now mind you, it's impossible to see the scratch unless you are bent over looking at it from a few inches away. Despite this it hasn't stopped bothering me, to the point where I've actually contemplated replacing the bumper, lol. Maybe it's just a testament to how nice the car is that I want to keep it perfect, but I'm curious as to whether anyone else is like this with their 370.

YES..everything that happens to the Z bothers me so badly! I have a 4 inch deep scratch on the hood, dent /missing paint under drivers door handle, 6 inch deep scratch on right fender. Oh..yea and a tiny hairline on the hatch. Thats just to name a few I blame it on the black paint since it shows everything; which is why I'm getting the car painted next month. I do know that all cars will have some kind of blemish but mine is crazy... no more parking next to anyone and no more car washes... needs to be done at home.

I got a door ding once, I almost got diarrhea when I discovered it. My paintless dent repair policy took care of it
Scratches, I usually buff out with polish.
