Clay bar and wax residue along the edge. (I used a Q-tip to clean it off.) I also have a nick in mine from maybe a rock chip. That's about it so far.

The one on the hood had a rock chip when I bought it, but the dealer replaced it at no charge, of course. I have about 6 coats of Zaino on them and they look good.

Don't have one myself, but have read where several people had fading or discoloring problems.

Not a problem on mine. The only problem so far has been the right headlight hitting the hood and chipping the headlight assembly.
Stripes are

No problems here...I'm sure Zaino has something to do with it.

My stripes are doing fine, covered with several coats of McGuires NXT and looking as awesome as the day I picked it up.
