Nice, looks just like mine! However, I think most people would get the point after seeing 3-4 pictures of paint damage. :P

I agree. Although, it is something to show with the results of not washing and drying the car properly.
For this car, it was not dried properly.
The towel was not a microfiber towel, was not clean, and with too much pressure.
