if it doesn't come off, I definitely will

hmm i don't think so :/ I even have a car cover on it whenever I'm home.

Really need macro pics of it to really tell what's going on.

Quoting myself here. Just washed the car, and YES water will sit in a puddle right there and can leave a very large water spot. I'm betting that's exactly what it is.

if that does happen, wouldnt it come off if you wipe it with a wet towel? Or become less pronounced? I couldn't even scratch it off with my finger :/

I also double wipe the car and do a triple take to make sure there is no water left after a wash. I would've caught this :/

Not necessarily if the water spot has been left on the surface for some time and then gets burned into the clearcoat / paint by the sun.

I've had exactly that happened to the left side of the hood with my old Golf GTI, it was a weird occurrence but wasn't noticeable unless at certain angles.

hmm interesting. That's rather unfortunate then :/ how weird. Thanks though! definitely going to take that into consideration.
