Clean or dirty, I can't help seeing through the skin at all the fantastic engineering underneath. I don't see panels, I see covers to slip the engineering through the air with the minimum of effort. Weird int it.

Let's face it, she ain't the prettiest in the line up.

Your right mate Gun metalic any day of the week

Not to be a **** or anything but, I also have a Black GT-R and yes the front bumper is chipped. You can only see it when you are very close. I do wash it often but, front chipping paint is a headache to me.

I thought front chipping on the GTR was pretty much unavoidable,unless it's not driven!! On that note,how much does it cost to get the front protected with a clear wrap of some description?

Speak to Magic (traders section here) re any kind of detail or wraps.

Mind you clear wraping a second hand GTR seems to be doing it after the horse has bolted.

My car has only done 9K miles and tobe honest its past the point where i'd bother considering a clear wrap. Front and rear arch respray or white full wrap in the next few months me thinks.

My Kuro Black car has terrible swirls in the sun and under car park lights, luckily most the detailers I have spoke to have said the paint is very easy to correct

If you have not used him before for correction, if you can't yourself, give Barry @ autodetox a call.
