I know that sounds strange, but if you look at my G35 there are no yellow stains.

Bus, as crazy it sounds but like you said without me touching it since it has slowly disappeared which makes no apparent sense but I'm so happy about that. Truely amazing!

I don't let bird lime sit for long. I do a walk around each time I get to the car and if I see any I take it off right away. I have a mf towel in the car all the time and a small spray bottle with water to rid off the excrement from the paint. The longer it sits, the more likely it would etch. I just use water but there are a lot of products out there. The detailing and washing section has lots of info about this topic.

Heres a few photos of my 2011 370. First thing I did was plasti dip my wheels. Then installed a Stillen G3 intake...and lately I have been experimenting with more plasti dip. Did my emblems, door handles, and front grill.

Im looking for more things to do...not sure what will be next. Any suggestions?

mmmm.. It actually looks good on base wheels, I was about to get mine powder coated at a dealership for $80 per wheel but reading on this forum that it looks ridiculous getting base wheels black changed my mind...now I'm thinking about it again...lol

Once you're Plasti-Dipping the whole car, you'll have to resort to mods that cost money.

Yeah i think ive done enough with the plasti dip, haha. I was thinking about installing a new exhaust, but wanted to see what else was out there for some reasonable prices..maybe tuning, suspension? Mostly, just wanted to switch from body to performance!
