hondamatic is right, if you got a rock chip then rust will form if its not touched up because bare metal is exposed.

if anyone owns a white or red fit then the clearcoat is infused in the paint (single stage)..whereas other colors are over the paint..

i bought a taffeta white and i already got 3 chips after only 3 weeks of owning it.

lets face it man, our roads suck total ass.

these days only luxury cars have good paint jobs, but i cant see myself spending an extra 10k for a better paint job and for a car that will cost double for repairs at a dealership than my honda
