Passenger side of the car, the black vented area that has the Z06 emblem in it... the bottom of that panel has knocked a serious amount of paint off my car... its 2 months old. Ill try to grab a picture later today. Thats one thing about these cars, you are still buying a Chevy.
The paint is better than my 14 was for sure. It had paint issues in a few areas. Btu this is a 100k car and I wont stand for it falling off in 2 months. So it will go back and they can fix it.
Mine has the same issue on both sides. See upper left of vent piece. Xpel installer pointed it out and thought it was from GM putting vent pieces in before paint was cured. Dealer said they would warranty for me. Don't really want to respray panels tho. Bummer.

I understand, can you post a close up picture?
I am however more afraid of a dealer (or any) respray of any panel.
I have been down this road with a special car in 2008 and it mad me insane, repainted 4 times and the color still never matched. Really sucked.
Not to be discouraging. I have found that the authorized Porsche independent repair shop locally here does the best paint work. My Porsche had some previous to me bad repair work, when Queen City (the Porsche authorized shop) did some paintwork on the car it was flawless and they also have the best detailer, did not look like then same car.
For my cars I prefer touch up paint to a respray every time if necessary.
