I wish, at least jizz wipes off.

There was a county paint truck that was spraying paint all over the place. He was in the turn lane and I slowly passed him and my car got raped. We're talking to them and making a damage claim. I was pressed for time so I didn't have time to take it off.

Damn that sucks, I thought maybe you hit a freshly painted line. You can definatly get them to pay to have it removed or a new paint job(maybe not so much a new paint job)

Paint? Damn. Here I was figuring salt or something. Hope you're able to work things out with the county.

They're gonna have to do something about it. It managed to make it on my roof, spoiler, rear bumper, and even my right-side fender.

We talked to a couple of paint places and they said it would most likely have to be re-painted. I would imagine the whole car will need to be re-painted or there could be color-matching issues.

I'm confused about why a county paint truck would be spraying paint in an area where traffic can pass...

Sue them!

I think it wasn't supposed to be. Either way I hope I can get a paint job out of them, my paint wasn't in the best condition before this happened.

I don't think I'm gonna settle for anything less than a full paint job. It's their fault, plain and simple. There's no reason for me to have to pay for any of it.

Too bad it wasn't like... rainbow paint. White is so boring.

Gonna stick with the blaze red if you get a new paint job?

Most likely. If I go a different color they'd have to paint everything else (inside the doors, trunk, engine bay, etc).

I had that happen to my SRT but it wasn't all over like on your car. Ziebart was able to remove the paint when I was in to have Diamond Gloss reapplied.

Damn! That sucks. They should have to pay for new paint, headlight(s), side marker(s), mirror(s), wheel(s), tire(s).

I'd keep the paint, sand polish the headlights and side markers. Invest the money in other parts for the car! :D
