Rear End Dust!!!!!!!!
why is it impossilbe to keep the rear end from getting dust/sand on it. even from a 5 minute ride on clean roads it gets filthy after a fresh wax. do any of you use a special type of wax or something so that the this stuff doesnt want to "stick" to the rear end? this is getting ridiculous

Welcome to the tail light paradox. If you are talking about the tail light lip gathering sand then as someone mentioned the flush tailight mod is just about the only solution. To my dismay, when I put on my Tigershark rear fascia I found that the tail lights have no choice but to be flush mounted (no inset like the stock rear)...Even though I hate the flush look, I don't get the sand in there anymore...it's all about give and take

I agree with the rejex or zaino comments and a quick dust off when you get to your final destination

Not much you can really do to keep it off. The vacuum created by the car going down the road just sucks it up onto the back end.

Rejex and a duster or leaf blower.
I love the rejex.
When my car gets dusty I rinse it off with water then blow off the water with a leaf blower.
It then looks like it just got washed.
