It's really not that bad which is why I never repaires it (see pics) 2. pressure crack on hood by latch, nd a small repaired bubble on driver's door trim. 4. Typical crack at back lower corner of spoiler on both sides. #2-4 aren't noticeable except up close. The rest of the paint is GORGEOUS! Shines like brand new, o fade or spidering. 5. The center console soft rubber has some separation from the hard plastic top-plate.
