So by the end of winter the snow is paint matched?

I took a clay bar to the bumper sill late last year. Took 10 minutes of scraping to get it feeling smooth. The clay took off some gnarly brown stuff too. I'm sure I stripped the clear coat off pretty good, but meh. It's clean now.

imo just rear bumper delete

Two things came to mind:
1. Scions are slower therefore can't create enough turbulence to throw the spent air away from the rear of the car, and/or
2. You're driving one of rare diesel Twins

Won't list state in user info, post pic of WA plate.

Also, park, open door and dump dirty bong water, no crud out back.

Rear bumper is also good for collecting water in case you need to dampen a rag to wipe something down, like if a bird shits on your car and you need a little water to wipe it off you can probably get some water off the rear bumper.

It's a low pressure area, a bit of a dead zone for flow.
