Those RSX wheels really go well with your car. Nice touch :thumb:

Other than it being ridiculously soft? No. What kind of problems are you having?

I have a couple stone chips on the hood, and a hairline scratch on the side
I seriously believe that Honda uses some cheap paint. My former neighbor's Si's paint began oxidizing (roof and trunk) within 5 years of buying it new.

I Found 3 Rock Chips On My Hood yesterday When I Was Waxing It :( And One In The Windshield :(. so sick of all this construction in dfw
Same here. Gave the car a quick bath today and already found a slight ding in the hood...only been 1 week since I bought the car. And I've been as careful as possible.

I've considered getting the OEM wind deflector for the hood, but I might just get the OEM nose mask/bra since it covers the entire front end. And it blends in well with the CBP paint so it's not as noticeable

Today's wash:

I'd do it. In hindsight, I would've done it and saved the poor hood of my car. Probably not cost effective from the dealer, but it would look a lot better than the stone chips or even bug chips in the hood. It's like a magnet.

You're right. And I think rock/stone/big chips are way more noticeable on black cars

On The bright Side Touch Up Paint Is Only $8 At THe Dealer And It Is A Damn Good Match And Easy To Apply Correctly
