Hopefully it will go away, otherwise your paying for my new paint job lol.

you or the dealer let yellow bird **** sit on it too long, it stained the clear.

I think if you give it a good wash and wax it will go away or blend.

I just noticed this on my car as well and I generally always keep it washed/waxed. It can't be from bird ****...either way I havent tried claying or taking a compound to it but thats the next step.

These marks are definitely at the surface so should come out one way or another.

It is bird **** cause i saw bird **** on my car, wiped it off and the stains look exactly the same.

But i kept working at it and waxing it, and its now gone.

Default My Pearl White

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?

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!
