Rock chips
First time out in the rain today. I always follow at least 4 car lengths behind someone in front and double if its a semi/dump truck lol. But it's got to be the subaru paint. I had maybe one on the front bumper and in one trip I've got at least 10-15. I mean little craters all over the front bumper. I'm pretty OCD about my car. I might possibly clear bra the whole front later and get the front bumper repainted. Or just accept it and go do more track day. Sorry guys I'm just ranting. Does anyone have a opinion on what to do to help prevent or is it just inevitable?

2.5k and i've touched up a few spots and have a few more, and i give good following distances.
clear bra would def help, or take the money from a clear bra and put $10 of it to toward a paint pen and the rest toward depreciation or repainting. |
