Believe it, or not, my car with all the miles on it looks brand new inside and out. The only little ticks in it are on the clear bra (not down to the paint) and in front of the rear wheels on the factory protection film. No other blemishes. And I don't have side skirts or custom splash guards.

That does make sense.

As my Godfather used to say; "run the wheels off it."
